mmm not sure if/why this should solve it, but sometimes simplification
is bliss...

did you try using one textobject with three lines instead of three
separate textobjects on each side.

[flanker1]
[flanker2]
[flanker3]

^ that in one textbox, rather than three. Also: press {return},
{space} then again {return} in order to create an empty line between
two lines, if needed.
