I can share your idea that it's good to see a difference between both
types of code snippets. But, then, instead of _not_ fontifying the code
in question, it'd be better (for example) to provide them with
a different background color (other than the current
`org-block-background', shared by both types of snippets).

Ouf ;-)

I don't think having highlighting or not encourages one-lines: we need
them (for their purpose) or not, with or without highlighting.

On the contrary, not highlighting one-liners would encourage to convert
them into 3-liners (if we "need" the colors):

#+begin_html/latex
... one-line code ...
#+end_html/latex

Not sure to understand why you'd make a distinction.

So do I.
