Are you saying it's a change considering only en.wiki's wishes?

Nested lists worked before as well, because each # and * gave the same
indentation; : is not used to nest lists, even on en.wiki, based on what I see
in [[Help:List]] (where it's only an extreme random example) and
[[Category:Wikipedia Manual of Style (lists)]].

Robin has already said why, and I've reopened the bug based on complaints on
Italian wikis.
