When do * appear?

The fleuron is meant to only appear on the last paragraph -- or rather, the last element of its type.

      &:last-of-type {
        margin-bottom: 0;

        // Asterisk fleuron
        &:after {
          display: block;
          margin: $spacing-05 auto;
          height: 1em;
          width: 1em;
          -webkit-print-color-adjust: exact;

It’s appearing there because there is a list following a paragraph. I can fix that by affixing the pseudo-element to the post’s body, rather than the last paragraph.
