This is not a bug in the exporters. The discrepancy exists in the output
languages, in particular in paragraphs. Org uses a definition of
a paragraph close to LaTeX's, so an Org paragraph isn't quite a HTML
paragraph.

Of course they should. You should look at the definition of a paragraph,
per Org syntax. Keywords cannot belong to a paragraph.
