I think you mis-typed your second example...

The behaviour is customizable through Info-hide-note-references.

The elisp intro does not say "you can read", so looks OK IMO:

   This introduction to `Programming in Emacs Lisp' has a companion
document, see The GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual.

Personally I think your "you can read @ref" is not really Texinfo style (?),
which is why the result looks a bit odd.
