Different rendering between .Rmd and .Rmarkdown when using blogdown

Multi tool use
I have found some strange differences in the way .Rmd files are rendered compared to .Rmarkdown.
My setup:
Beautiful hugo theme
Blogdown 0.9
Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit)
Running under: Windows >= 8 x64 (build 9200)
If change the file extension between Rmd and Rmarkdown, I observe the following differences:
- Rmd doesn't render multi level lists properly
- Rmd doesn't render footnotes [^1] properly
- Rmarkdown doesn't render math properly
- Python code chunks don't have a nice little execute button in the upper right in Rmd.
Is this expected behavior? Is there something with the theme that causes this?

Yes the difference between .Rmd
and .Rmarkdown
is expected and Yihui et al. outlines it in their book (it's around the middle of the page)
There are two major limitations of using .Rmarkdown compared to .Rmd:
- You cannot use Markdown features only supported by Pandoc, such as citations. Math expressions only work if you have installed the xaringan package (Xie 2018d) and applied the JavaScript solution mentioned in Section B.3.
- HTML widgets are not supported.
The main thing to note is that .Rmarkdown
gets coverted to .markdown
documents first and gets parsed onto Blackfriday
to generate a html while .Rmd
uses Pandoc
.

Thanks for the helpful response. I read the whole book and tried to look back at it but I missed this.
