More than one blank line between parts

The reviewed Genius guidance places headers above distinct song parts and does not say how many empty lines go between them. LyricLint keeps the separation to a single blank line so the gaps down a transcription stay even.

Convention: One blank line between song parts.

Example

[Verse]
First


[Chorus]
Second

In the workbench this reads: Leave one blank line between song parts.

[Verse]
First

[Chorus]
Second

The fix

In the workbench this finding carries one control, labelled Remove extra blank lines. The fix is classified as safe, so pressing it applies the edit directly — one press, one undo step.
