Ohhhh! And where did you find that documented?!
Nowhere, was a mix of trial and error and somewhere on StackOverflow, which uses the same markup style, was mentioned that you can "stack" these sections.
Because three backticks are no longer limiting the code block, you can display them.
I think you can extend that infinitely. Eight, nine, ten or more "layers", while n - 1 times the character which sets up your section is not affected and is displayed properly.
Edit:
From clicking the "Help" button, I found out that you can also display three backticks using a 4 - space - indentation (in this case it's always four spaces to define the code block).
