Why can't we use single line breaks?

Is there a compelling reason why single line breaks are just ignored by the parser?

Sometimes you want a list that is just one after the other below it without spacing it out so far by double lines. I was explaining how DEBT works for protection in Q&A and wanted the acronym to be down the side of the text box and foolish me forgot that single line breaks don't parse at all, and ended up with

D - DamageE - Enchanting/EquippingB - BlockingT - Targeting

Which doesn't look -awful- per se, but really made me want to go immediately for the nonexistent edit button.

< br > without the spaces will create a linebreak :)

And a single return can't be set to do the same thing, in the way that I assume a double return is set to be < p > ?

Like smackjack mentioned, the < br > tag works. Occasionally mine doesn't work like I want it to so I end up using 2 of them. -_- I am not sure why, but what ever works, works.

Two spaces and a carriage return will also produce a single line break.
Like this.
And this.

Ooh, double spaces at the end of the line work too?
That's much more reasonable.

I really didn't know about the single break thing.
Excellent news
