Text expander apps replace block content on the Classic Block (inline)

[jartes]

Description

Quick summary

When using a text expander software or in the Classic block, the block itself is removed and the text that is inserted using the text expander is added through a Paragraph block.

This is only happening when using the inline Classic Block:

This works fine when using the pop-up Classic Block (which is displayed this way when the Custom Fields appearance option is off):

What actually happened

The entire Classic block (and text already added to the block) is removed. The text inserted using the text expander app is added as a Paragraph block.

2. Make sure you don't have the Custom Fields appearance settings
3. Add a Classic block.
4. Write a few sentences/words inside the block.
5. Insert a line using a text expander app, like "Text Expander" or "TypeIt4Me".
6. Check what happens.

This issue may not fundamentally be a problem with the text expansion app.

There have been reports of issues with non-modal classic blocks where text pasted from outside WordPress gets converted to a paragraph block:
