If you are asking, I am assuming I am wrong.  My assumption was that
@pxref was preferable.

I am sorry if my comments had a negative tone -- I am certainly no
texinfo expert, so I'd rather discuss the questions before applying any
changes.

I have also noticed there are a few instances of @file{<...>.el} vs
@file{<...>}.  Perhaps it makes sense to use @file when referring to the
packages as file names, and @code/@samp when referring to the package
name (if at all -- just like with my question whether use-package should
be formatted or not).
