what is broken here
It's '''''a''' limited statutory manager'' and '''''a''' LSM''. It would be '''''an''' unlimited statutory manager'' and '''''an''' USM''.

should look like this
It's '' '''a''' limited statutory manager'' and '''''a''' LSM''. It would be '' '''an''' unlimited statutory manager'' and '''''an''' USM''.
It's a limited statutory manager and a LSM. It would be an unlimited statutory manager and an USM.

It works exactly as designed. The markup ruleset is processed in order. On the same line, first '''''(text)''''' then '''(remaining text)''' then ''(remaining text)''. If you have on the same line an even number of ''''' 5 apostrophes, they are always evaluated before triple and double apostrophes; an even number of ''' 3 apostrophes on the same line is always evaluated before any double apostrophes. Your solution, inserting a space, or even a "null sequence" [==] is a good way to do what you mean. This is a situation similar to the one below, discussed a few years earlier. --Petko April 01, 2020, at 05:55 AM

The '+big+' and '-small-' markup get evaluated here - PmWiki doesn't know what that you want it the other way. --Petko November 12, 2013, at 04:25 PM

Who knew there was big and small markup ! simon November 21, 2013, at 09:04 PM

Perhaps PmWiki should evaluate [- and [+ first.

Another problem caused by the "small" markup `'- small -'`

strong markup does not display as expected
'''yyyy'''-'''mm'''v'''nn'''-'''ii'''
yyyymmvnnii

bold markup does not display as expected
'yyyy'-'mm'v'nn'-'ii'
'yyyy'mm'v'nn'ii'

and a working example
'''yyyy'''[=-=]'''mm'''v'''nn'''[=-=]'''ii'''
yyyy-mmvnn-ii
