I complimented Microsoft for making Markdown work in Teams, but now I'm realizing their Markdown parsing is all sorts of whack. *italics* render as bold. **bold asterisks** don't work, and instead it's _ single underscores_, which should do italics. Try mixing them and it doesn't apply both.

Loop components parse asterisks properly but don't understand underscores. Maybe this is to avoid it bugging programmers? Not sure but it's weird. Also doing triple asterisks has a habit of undoing the bold and only italicizing.
