Agreed. There are often paragraph breaks in the editing feature, but on the site they are being removed; there isn't even a space, as above: "these cases are handled by other units and divisions.The viewers are introduced to two homicide detectives"

The general plot guidelines do say not to use line breaks, but your own pictured example of a synopsis does include paragraph breaks. Not allowing paragraphs in long synopses is not helpful.
Paragraph breaks were displayed until recently:

(for comparison: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2106476/plotsummary/#synopsis)
I think it would be an improvement if there was a way to reformat a synopsis to put in paragraph breaks. Some of the synopses—e.g., those written for CSI: Miami—are just enormous, long walls of text. This is hard to read, especially for people of a certain age.
