Comment (by sabernhardt):

 Steps to reproduce:
 1. Install and activate Classic Editor or a similar plugin. If you want to
 use Playground, you can add the plugin name in the URL:
 `https://playground.wordpress.net/?plugin=classic-editor`
 2. Add a new post.
 3. Open a document such as 63769.docx in Microsoft Word.
 4. Copy full lines (paragraphs), either individually or as a group, and
 paste them into the Visual tab of the editor in WordPress. (Do not use the
 "Paste as text" option.)
 5. Check whether each pasted paragraph is converted to a list item within
 an ordered list.
