It’s fine to deviate from the consistent style. We do that already for
the style sheet that’s used for our HTML documentation. Compare this:
https://www.gnu.org/software/sharutils/manual/html_node/index.html
with this:
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/index.html
It’s fine to change our style sheet, but let’s stay with Texinfo.
