Well, there could be
(defun foo-bar ()
"Computes the Foo-Bar sequence.
For a description of the Foo-Bar sequence, see
‘Foo-Bar’, John Doe et al., Proceedings on Foo Bar, 2012."
...)
where ‘Foo-Bar’ is a real quote rather than a symbol markup. Of
courses, such cases are probably rare but still there's a point in
having symbol markup separated from quoting. (Well, ok, then the above
quote should simply be changed to “Foo-Bar” and we're good again.)
Bye,
