Heading can't start with a number followed by a dot

[bikegremlin]

I usually write article headings numerated, like:

1. Introduction
2. Point

2.1. Sub-point
etc.

With the WordPress 5.3. it is impossible to start a chapter with say:
1.

etc.

It automatically switches to numbered lists. Even though I had chosen the block to be H2, or H3 etc.

Workaround that has worked for me:

a) Write the chapter without space after the number. Like:

1.Chapter name

b) Press space after the number - "1." in this example.

c) It will instantly turn into a numbered list. NOW press backspace. It reverts to heading - tried with several WordPress installations, it gets the job done.
