Ah, very true.  There is a difference.  This is because org does not
use =exampleblock=; it uses =example= instead:

:  \begin{example}[The heading for the block]

Good catch. I didn't know about that difference! It's easier to use org's pre-defined stuff, so I think I'll just stick with it myself! It's not a bad idea to have it called out as an example anyway so perhaps I'll just get used to it!
 

This is different to "exampleblock" which you are using.  Which one is
nicer is obviously a personal choice; I like the current version
personally!  But I must admit that I did not know about the other one
(exampleblock).

Thanks again!
