Thunderbird 68.11.0.  Are you sure it's not something on your end?
Because, here:

it looks OK (in FF, eww).

Well, in INFO, go to "(emacs) Inserting Text" and "(emacs) Quotation
Marks" and see for yourself.  Maybe we should stick to @kbd until
someone writes it looks confusing in these cases.

By "here" do you mean BASIC.TEXI or all changes?  Let's make the
decision about whether to use or not @verb, then I could update DIFFs.
