:IMHO the answer is no.  <code>\parenthesize</code> doesn't allow the fine-tuning necessary to get good output with slanted text.  It might sense, however, to improve the documentation, mentioning <code>\parenthesize</code>. -- [[User:Lemzwerg|Lemzwerg]] ([[User talk:Lemzwerg|talk]]) 06:17, 1 February 2026 (UTC)

  }
