The difference between <code> and <pre> is that the later put the code
in a block with new lines preserved, while the former put everything on
a single line in flow with the current text. Both are legitimate but
used for different purpose. In the particular case of [code], since they
were used for code example spanning many lines, <pre> seems closer to
the intend.
