Maybe... It doesn't matter much either way, obviously.

For simplicity/consistency with other "trivial" items, it may be
better. On the other hand, it is more painful to type and takes 2
characters.

This is the entry I have so far for this in my to-be-sent guidelines
"rules" list:

- Use intra-doc links wherever the link would work (i.e. if ``rustdoc``
can resolve it), unless doing so would be unreasonably complex or
verbose. In such a case, use a simple code span instead.

Do so even for trivial types and constants, such as ``i32`` and
``true``, as well as for ``Self``.

.. code-block:: rust

/// Returns a new [`Foo`].

Avoid:

.. code-block:: rust

/// Returns a new `Foo`.

Cheers,
