I only changed one name, but all are correct, according to the
UnicodeData.txt and 'describe-char'.

There were various styles of Unicode code points and character names
across Emacs manual ~2 years ago. It was decided to follow Unicode
notation, so I'm following it. Then, the reason is... consistency?

Perhaps you could use the same messages:
    Fix styling of Unicode codepoints in manuals
OR
    Canonicalize the style of "U+NNNN CHARACTER NAME".

None? But...

...since you agreed with moving it to DOCSTYLE.TEXI, let it be the
solution.
