I don't think LALR or LR is a tradename.
This seems to be what mdoc(7) describes as:
Since this macro is often implemented to use a small caps
font, it has historically been used for acronyms (like
ASCII) as well. Such usage is not recommended because it
would use the same macro sometimes for semantical annotation,
sometimes for physical formatting.
So would it be better to just say LALR(1) without
any markup, just as we say e.g. BNF?

yes, Tn gets abused horribly. however it's everwhere, so i wouldn;t want
to tackle it in a single page. we would have to decide where exactly it
makes sense (never, as far as i'm concerned), then do it everywhere
consistently.
The diff below removes them from bin/ games/ and sys/ (more to come)
leaving only those that are actualy tradenames, as in .Tn ATT
