[BUG] org-emphasis-regexp-components [9.6.15 (release_9.6.15 @ /snap/emacs/current/usr/share/emacs/29.4/lisp/org/)]

Desired behaviour: emphasis markers that only work within a
paragraph (sentences without a line break). In the following example,
only the
first expression should appear in bold: 

*jk j*

*jk
j* 


So I set the maximum new lines to zero in org-emphasis-regexp-
components (instead of the default of 1):

(setcar (last org-emphasis-regexp-components) 0)
(org-set-emph-re 'org-emphasis-regexp-components org-emphasis-regexp-
components)

This works. 
However, now the first expressions does not appear in bold
either. Only single words without any spaces like *jk* still appear in
bold. Sentences do not appear in bold anymore. Do I misinterpret the
meaning of max newlines in org-emphasis-regexp-components? 

KR, berchas

Confirmed.  To be re-considered after new font-lock code.

`org-emphasis-regexp-components' is not a user customization.
I do not recommend using it.
