• Yoast SEO version: 9.2.1

NOTE: It appears other Readability Analysis warnings fail to be highlighted too

Issue also happens with TinyMCE Advanced. This affects blocks created with it. Blocks that were created before installing TinyMCE Advanced, are not affected. Tested with: v4.8.3.

WORKAROUND

As a workaround, please confirm that converting the editor to blocks by mousing over the editor (near the top), finding the 3 vertical dots, and selecting convert and then saving resolves the issue.
