Although you can't tell just by looking at this page, the formatter found that this sidenote continues on next page. (It's our next example.)

Even if you don't receive a reply, your question will alert the post-processor to look for this rare, special situation.

This paragraph begins with a section symbol (§), so why is there only one blank line above it? Because the project comments explained that these actually are sub-sections, and to treat them as normal paragraphs, preceded by only one blank line. If the project comments had not addressed this issue, the § and the lack of extra white space above the paragraph would be good reasons for just treating it as an inline sub-section, preceded by one blank line.
