 at the same time, I can trigger the code block consistently every time.

 I think this is the opposite for me. When I type at a slower pace, the
 code block is generated. If I type something very quickly after the
 closing backtick, it breaks.

 The gif above should show the behavior.

 Additional findings:

 * Once a paragraph experiences a non-working backtick, any remaining uses
 on that line won't work either.
 * This does not impact new paragraphs. Things reset.
