 I'm not certain if this should be opened as a Core Trac ticket, Gutenberg
 issue, or best tracked here so apologies if I'm logging this in the wrong
 place...

 I'm currently working on the 5.5 Field Guide and see that when I embed the
 https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/07/16/block-patterns-in-
 wordpress-5-5/ post the Glossary helper text that appears on the "block"
 term in the first sentence gets injected into the excerpt shown when
 embedding that post.  Ideally that Glossary helper text is not injected
 into the excerpt as it makes the excerpt quite confusing.

 Here's what the excerpt shows now:
 > In WordPress 5.5, the blockBlock Block is the abstract term used to
 describe units of markup that, composed together, form the content or
 layout of a webpage using the WordPress editor. The idea combines concepts
 of what in the past may have achieved with shortcodes, custom HTML, and
 embed discovery into a single consistent API …

 Note that after "In WordPress 5.5, the block" the content from the "Block"
 glossary entry gets injected.  The excerpt would ideally show copy
 straight from the post (or an excerpt that's explicitly provided for the
 post).
