Taking notes.  That prompts further thoughts, but emacs-devel and/or
emacs-orgmode would be better venues for them.

For the purposes of this report, all that comes to mind is

* You might have solved bug#52587?  At least I can no longer reproduce
  using the recipe there (NB: the OP needs adjustments¹) after pulling
  your changes, 'make all', and 'emacs -Q -L lisp' from the Org repo².

  (Which means I could finally dispense with newlines between "#+end_"
  lines and headings 🥹)

* Thank you so much for looking into this! 🙏


¹ As noted in the comments, the issue only comes up if you remove the
newline between "#+end_quote" and "* baz"; also AFAICT modus-operandi no
longer adds a background to org-block-*-line by default?  So I had to
theme that in manually to reproduce & test the fix.

² Don't know if there is a "blessed" way to interactively test changes
in the Org repo; thinking of e.g. magit's 'emacs-Q' target which reduces
the chance of forgetting a step.  FWIW I went in guns blazing with 'make
-j8' and got screenfuls of version-mismatch warnings, so elected to take
-j8 off; that seemed to make things quieter.
