Neither the  button nor the option allows just formatting a single word like that.

 

Looking at the HTML view of the above post, it's using the <code> tag - but I don't see any way to enter that via the Editor?

This type of formatting occurs when someone pastes pre-formatted text – for example, from ChatGPT – using a simple copy-and-paste, thereby copying its formatting. To prevent this, you can paste such text as plain ASCII text by using Ctrl+Shift+V instead of Ctrl+V.
