Comportamento estranho de wrapfigure e lista de descrição

Question

Não sei exatamente como descrever isso. Esta é a aparência do pdf:

Imediatamente após a figura 4.6, o texto retorna corretamente às linhas completas. Mas então, com o próximo item da descriptionlista, o texto age como se ainda precisasse envolver a figura.

Fornecer um MWE para isso é um pouco complicado, pois esse comportamento só aparece quando as coisas estão "exatamente assim", mas aqui está meu código para a figura e a lista:

\begin{wrapfigure}[16]{R}{0.4\textwidth}
    \captionsetup{skip=0.5\baselineskip,size=footnotesize}
    \centering
    \includegraphics[width=0.35\textwidth]{Figures/VIcurves}
    \rule{.4\textwidth}{.4pt}
    \caption[Example V-I curve for solar PV panel]{Example V-I curve for solar PV panel \cite{solarex_millenia_1999}.}
    \label{fig:VIcurves}
\end{wrapfigure}

Blah blah blah

\subsubsection{Inverters}

Blah blah blah

\begin{description}
    \item[UPS inverters] use mains power to charge a battery bank, and supply ac loads with power from the batteries when mains power is not avaialable. Three 700 \si{VA} UPS inverters are in use at CREST.
    \item[Solar UPS inverters] use solar PV input to charge the batteries and supply loads, when available. One 2400 \si{VA} solar UPS inverter is in use at CREST.

Você pode interromper e retomar o ambiente de descrição, emulando um espaçamento vertical \itemsepentre os dois ambientes:

    \documentclass{report}
    \usepackage{caption}
    \usepackage{wrapfig, siunitx}
\usepackage{enumitem}
    \usepackage{graphicx}%[demo]
    \usepackage[showframe]{geometry}
\usepackage{lipsum, calc}
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{3}
    \begin{document}
\setcounter{chapter}{4}
\setcounter{section}{4}
\setcounter{subsection}{4}
\setcounter{subsubsection}{1}

\begin{wrapfigure}[17]{R}{0.4\textwidth}
    \captionsetup{skip=0.5\baselineskip,size=footnotesize}
    \centering
    \includegraphics[width=0.35\textwidth]{hare-blazon}
    \rule{.4\textwidth}{.4pt}
    \caption[Example V-I curve for solar PV panel]{Example V-I curve for solar PV panel \cite{solarex_millenia_1999}.}
    \label{fig:VIcurves}
\end{wrapfigure}
