Without further ado, the following was found:
Issue: In the right table, please add \& markup for end of sentence characters (? ! .) to get proper formatting in other locales. Thanks!

I'm not sure what's the intended change. Since this is more delicate, I think
sending a patch would be ideal. Please follow the CONTRIBUTING file:
<https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/man-pages/man-pages.git/tree/CONTRIBUTING>
And since it's about formatting, please also CC the following in your patch:
CC: "G. Branden Robinson" <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
CC: <groff@gnu.org>
Cheers,
Alex

I can do this later, just for your background this was an old bug in
Debian which manpage-l10n worked around:
