Not necessarily. Take the following example (with 4 spaces before item "two"):
- one
2. two
With the exception of Maruku (which falls flat on it's face here),
every implementation consistently renders this:
<ul>
<li>one <ol>
<li>two</li>
</ol>
</li>
</ul>
While I hate to deflate any argument against option B, the fact is,
there doesn't have to be any "implied 3rd item in the surrounding
unordered list". However, without the indentation, I don't think it's
clear to the casual reader that that should be a nested ordered list -
which I've already discussed in my previous comment.
