What feature should be changed? Please provide the URL of the feature if possible.
==================================================================================
On MDN, I think it'd help code stand out more if it used a serif font, instead of the current sans-serif.

What problems would this solve?
===============================
The font used for code is not different enough from the regular font used everywhere else.

Who would use this?
===================
users of MDN

What would users see?
=====================
font that is more obviously code

What would users do? What would happen as a result?
===================================================
have an improved MDN reading experience

Is there anything else we should know?
======================================
Inline code uses consolas which is a monospace font with serifs.

A few weeks ago we also added a grey background behind code in paragraphs.

I hope these two things have helped your reading experience :)
