It happens because syntax coloring is a bit dumb. It uses regexps but
not the parser. However, if you try, e.g., to export the document, the
plus signs will not be treated as markers.

You could insert a zero-width space between "+" and ".", in either or
both occurrences.

You could try to remove ("+" ...) completely from the variable and
restart Emacs.
