The section is general because it tells you how to style *everything*,
including, but not limited to, verse environments. When exporting to ODT
you don't set fonts for particular environments in Org-mode. Rather, you
use an application like LibreOffice to modify and save a stylesheet, and
tell Org-mode what stylesheet to apply to exported ODT.

Export a document to ODT with the ugly verse environment, then either
locate the 'OrgVerse' style in the LibreOffice 'Stylist' and edit it
there, or simply right-click on a verse and choose 'Edit Paragraph
Style' from the menu. Choose a different font. Change any other styles
(e.g. headings) as you like. Save the modified document in a convenient
place, then use it as an Org ODT styles file as described in the manual.

Yours,
