Description
Most importantly, LaTeX autocompletions don't work, so that \ge followed by a tab no longer produces a "Greater than or equal to" sign. Other significant problems include that trying to run a block with "run cell" just inserts the first line without running it:

And rendering from .qmd seems to be broken as well, with the kernel dying before anything happens. Although strangely, rendering directly from a .ipynb notebook seems to work.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported behavior in a Quarto .qmd file in VS Code, comparing LaTeX completion, Run Cell, and rendering with the working .ipynb case. Trace the VS Code notebook and kernel integration involved in each failure. Done means all three .qmd workflows work without breaking .ipynb rendering.
