No, clearly Asciidoc is a program, so its deterministic, but ... Quotes are detected by regular expressions. The context that the regular expression applies to is complex and as I said above depends on what other quotes are around, if the quote can be interpreted as an opening quote, or a closing quote, if other quotes are processed before or after this quote and the context, ie how much text the regular expression looks in. And I can't tell you if thats all without checking the code in great detail. Two situations are the same when they are *exactly* the same, but as a human we may have difficulty telling. In the specific case here I think the difference is the first occurrence of that sentence is in a paragraph with lots of other hashes around, which might be interpreted as the closing quotes for the ones in that sentence. The second case the hashes only occur by themselves in a paragraph. It is unfortunate that the specific topic of your document uses many literal occurrences that might be interpreted as markup. Usually things are not so complex. What I tend to do is to use a passthrough markup around literal content, such as backquotes. Also this is usually styled so it makes the literal text different, making it more distinguishable to readers. But I acknowledge you might not want to do that.
