Where does it say that X can be combined with X to form a bold X? Yet man(1) (or, rather, Nroff) uses that since time immemorial, and it still works with less(1) at the least. Obviously, that part of ASCII didn=E2=80=99t propagate to Unicode. That still hardly is a reason to use U+0060 (or any other spacing accent character) as a substitute to a quotation mark.
