I have a custom renderer which, for demonstration purposes, writes something along the lines of this:

renderer.Write("""
  <a href="http:\\www.heise.de">
    <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: row; gap: 8px; align-items: center;">
      <div style="background: red;">Hello</div>
      <div style="background: green;">World</div>
    </div>
  </a>
  """);

However, in the rendered HTML, the very same code looks like this:

It seems to

Take the a-tag, and places it there, just completely empty.
Takes the first div-tag in the a-tag, and places it on the root layer as well, then putting the a-tag inside, which then contains everything the div contained.

This seems very strange, and I've tried a lot, always running into this issue when using div-tags. Is this intended behavior? Something I am not aware of?
