Isn't markdown table just a bunch of | ?
That's the problem.
most specifically the problem is that markdown tables don't allow breaking the table row in multiple lines
but then you can always use HTML tables in markdown and Pandoc transforms it just fine
<br> has worked fine whenever I’ve needed line breaking in markdown tables
I think they mean breaking the line in the markup, not the output
They mean in the Markdown code, not in the output.
Every markdown implementation is supposed to allow inline HTML.
