I note for anyone else who runs into this. I only just solved it this year.
Apparently, the column type that I was referencing was a full text style (like comments) rather than "like a title".
It pulls the html coding into it in this case instead of just the text.

My accidentally discovered solution is that I created another custom column (text format like a title). I then used the Bulk Metadata Edit Search/Replace to copy everything over from entries whose existing info was "true". Then I deleted the original column and used the new one instead. I no longer get the " < > " coding language in the jacket.

Perhaps this is something rarely used an thus never noticed that could be adjusted in Calibre for future releases.
