Yup, as I said, it's inelegant. But if it's a single quote (one-off) then it is A solution which avoids embedding and subsetting a font for only a few characters.

I've seen it used when inserting a different character/equation etc. within a sentence. Personally, I wouldn't use it in a sentence; I think that looks horrible when you change the background color unless the device/app supports transparent background, but it is OK if it is used like a blockquote.
