I see. We had a discussion about emphasis issues in https://orgmode.org/list/8735nnq73n.fsf@localhost The conclusion from there is that supporting such scenarios will introduce various edge cases. We would need to make the emaphsis parser more and more complex inevitably introducing errors. An alternative may be some kind of "forced" emphasis syntax where Org does not have to guess about the emphasis using non-transparent rules. But it's what zero width space is for and it is what we recommend in the Org manual. Best, Ihor
