Is there a difference between ` and `` ? Does it make sense to be
consistent?
This is `just weird quotes`
umm ... `this` is supposed to be "interpreted text"
https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html#inline-markup

Maybe we don't actually interpret it.
This is ``literal text`` set in monospace in processed output.

There is a certain tension between those who want to see liberal use of
literal-text markup, and those who would rather have less markup in the
text overall; certainly, it's better not to go totally nuts with it.
I really appreciate the work you did to reduce the amount of
markup that's needed!
