Perhaps it might be wise for me to remove the “-” (count-down list)
paragraph type altogether. It was only in there for symmetry with “+”
(count-up list). Who really uses that anyway?
Since the count-up list can take an optional index number, a count-down list
could still be written manually as:
+3 foo
+2 bar
+1 zot
which results in:
- foo
- bar
- zot

Um... how is typing +X any easier than just typing X. anyway? I guess that’s
just a cool thing to do for the sake of a cool thing to do. :-)

LOL, no... +X is what you’d have to write if you wanted to cajole a
count-up list + into counting downward. If you just want a count-up list,
you can use + without the X number, like this:
+ foo
+ bar
+ zot
which results in:
- foo
- bar
- zot
