Hi Joseph,

I cannot reproduce your issue. But I think there is none.

The contents of my source file (`hi.md`):

``` md
## Good feedback
1. highlights both strengths to continue and weaknesses to remedy
1. is focused on the task, not the learner
1. is prioritized and in manageable units towards remediable concerns
1. is specific and clear, connected to goals (rubric)
```

If I invoke `pandoc.exe --section-divs -t html hi.md` (which is version
2.0.1), I get

``` html5
<section id="good-feedback" class="level2">
<h2>Good feedback</h2>
<ol type="1">
<li>highlights both strengths to continue and weaknesses to remedy</li>
<li>is focused on the task, not the learner</li>
<li>is prioritized and in manageable units towards remediable concerns</li>
<li>is specific and clear, connected to goals (rubric)</li>
</ol>
</section>
```

If I invoke `pandoc --section-divs -t html hi.md`
(pandoc-1.19.2.1-3.fc25.i686, I used Wine for the binary above), I get:

``` html4
<div id="good-feedback" class="section level2">
<h2>Good feedback</h2>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>highlights both strengths to continue and weaknesses to remedy</li>
<li>is focused on the task, not the learner</li>
<li>is prioritized and in manageable units towards remediable concerns</li>
<li>is specific and clear, connected to goals (rubric)</li>
</ol>
</div>
```

What seems to be replaced is HTML4 with HTML5 as the default HTML
version in pandoc-2.0.x.

In HTML5 <section> is used (instead of <div>) to wrap text sections.

If I didn’t get it wrong, either you replace div with section in your
CSS selectors (in case you need this), or you have to ask for HTML4.

If I got it wrong, please provide the exact way in which you invoke pandoc.

I hope it helps,

Pablo
