I am trying to make a multi-select lookup column into plain text using .totext(), then trying to make it into a numbered list using .numberedlist(), but the list seems to break and only turn into one line.

If you look at the screenshot above - that green ITEMS chip has a little icon in it. Each and every icon in a formula chip means something. The specific icon in the green chip is telling you:
Hey Jad! The data you are pulling in through this little green chip is a list of rows.
Row values hold within them every column value from the table they are a part of and you can access the specific column values by chaining them out with a .
When you were adding toText() to the end of the chip initially it was changing the value of the green chip from a list of rows to a simple text value. Hence why when you did NumberedList() on the value as a text it only resulted in a single item.
