Return code 418 is what NGINX internally uses to route the raw markdown file or "md-renderer.html".
I see that, but isn't it also returned to the requesting user agent? The way I read the code, a 418 error page is being returned, so I presume an 418 status code is returned with it.

Returning a 200 seems desirable. According to the Nginx docs, that's possible with a syntax like this:
