It occured to me that in some templates that I provide my readers, I use angled brackets, which are the same that are used in HTML code.
For example, an email template I provide may start with:
Dear <Recipient’s Name>,
Obviously I should have used parenthesis or square brackets like this: \[ \]
My question: Is this something I should go edit/fix? It appears to be displaying perfectly fine in Google Chrome. Clearly the browser is not mistaking it for code.
Just curious if I’ll potentially run into issues with this in the future.
I use Wordpess Classic Editor if it matters.

When you type ‘<‘ or ‘>’ into the Visual Editor it converts them into HTML entities so they will appear as you typed them on the front-end. You can see this yourself by switching to the Text Editor, which will display anything you’ve already typed as HTML.
