@ChristianMurphy Hi, the issue got fixed in syntax-tree/mdast-util-mdx-jsx#12 and put in a new release (https://github.com/syntax-tree/mdast-util-mdx-jsx/releases/tag/3.1.1). I don't know where exactly, but maybe the dependency should be bumped up in the playground etc.

Thanks @theRealProHacker, it's already fixed in the playground and allowed by released version ranges.
