It will be added where you add it.

one.

You see, this is something that the author of the file doesn't need to worry
about. If the setting is enabled, the new line will be added at the end if it
doesn't exist. Probably working as designed. If you don't like the feature,
disable it and add newlines whenever you want.

I don't know. Maybe use another editor to see if it's 1:1, it works reliably
for me during the 8+ hours I spend using it everyday.
