I appreciate you taking the effort to pass these issues on. The issues you are reporting all appear to involve wrapping text with "I<" and ">". I do not know what this does but assume that it is changing the font used or marking that text as having a particular purpose. It is not possible to add markup to this text as the man pages are automatically generated by the help2man program from the --help output of the programs in question, and man page markup would be inappropriate for such output. We do not maintain man pages separately, due to this being extra work. If we were to make these changes it would require filtering either the output from or the input to the help2man program, and integrating this with the package build system. This is not a priority for me, but I'd be open to somebody else doing the work for it.
