Why are line breaks (line feed) inserted after each line in Markdown files creating extra lines?

If you look at the Markdown file type settings, it has the following remark:

  • Handle line breaks as inline tags - displays inline tags in the segments. If this is not enabled, inline tags are not displayed, but the line feed will be inserted after each line in the segment.

Question:

I would like to know why the default setting is to insert the line feed **AFTER** each line.
For example if you have the following markdown:

### Line1
### Line2

It becomes the following after target translation generation:

### Line1

### Line2

I couldn't think of a reason why this is the default behavior.
