Comment:

 It looks like `shortcode_unautop()` is supposed to remove those `<p>`
 tags, but it only supports removing a single shortcode. To fix this, we
 could modify `shortcode_unautop()` to remove multiple shortcodes. Such a
 patch would have to include lots of unit tests because the combination of
 shortcodes and autop is very scary.

 This is not a priority as the block editor makes both shortcodes and autop
 largely obsolete, but I'd be happy to see this ticket re-opened if someone
 wants to submit a patch.
