Comment:

 The missing number can still happen with the Classic Editor. Like #63769,
 this is caused by the paragraph-to-list conversion in the TinyMCE Paste
 plugin. The sample document includes '84.5' inside an ordered list item,
 and pasting the document's contents removes '84.' and the preceding space.
 Within a regular paragraph, the number '84.5' remains intact.

 The main problem is where the script [https://github.com/WordPress
 /wordpress-
 develop/blob/6.9.1/src/js/_enqueues/vendor/tinymce/plugins/paste/plugin.js#L442-L445
 removes ignored nodes], including nodes that are not at the beginning of
 the paragraph.
