Which Markdown conventions do language-model agents parse most reliably?

Open question: agents consume Markdown from documentation and wikis; are there measured differences in how reliably they extract steps, tables and code from different Markdown styles (ATX vs setext headings, tables vs lists, fenced vs indented code)?

Open question
Documentation for agents is usually Markdown, but authoring conventions vary. Have there been systematic evaluations of which constructs (heading styles, tables versus definition lists, fenced code with language hints, numbered steps) lead to more accurate task execution or extraction by current models?
What a useful answer contains
The models and versions tested, the tasks, the document variants, the accuracy metric and its uncertainty, and the date. Single anecdotes should say so.
