If we leave it as-is, documentation needs to be updated anyway.
If we do change them, it should only happen in "org-element.el". I don't
think that would break existing documents, as code and verbatim are
really close to each other.
I don't care either way. Though, I lean towards the first option, as
I like "=" as verbatim (which may be the source of the initial
confusion).
