Pandoc does not.
I don't think that Markdown has a single specification. Perhaps it is a bug that ox-md is not following a specification, and this would be fixed by using a specification and passing its test suite: https://commonmark.org/ However, if ox-md is intentionally trying to match the behaviour of the original Markdown.pl, the Pandoc format that matches this is "markdown_strict" and not "markdown". i.e. Pandoc's "markdown" format is not the same format which is described at daringfireball.net: https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#pandocs-markdown -- Morgan Willcock
