@er1c Thanks for the report. I don't know if I'd call it a bug, but it does seem like a good idea to unify to the markdown list on multi-project.

Likely relevant part of the code is

sbt/main/src/main/scala/sbt/internal/Aggregation.scala

Lines 50 to 58 in e1ffc2a

	def printSettings(xs: Seq[KeyValue[_]], print: String => Unit)(
	implicit display: Show[ScopedKey[_]]
	): Unit =
	xs match {
	case KeyValue(_, x: Seq[_]) :: Nil => print(x.mkString("* ", "\n* ", ""))
	case KeyValue(_, x) :: Nil => print(x.toString)
	case _ =>
	xs foreach (kv => print(display.show(kv.key) + "\n\t" + kv.value.toString))
	}
