With HTML output, @minus{} is converted to a hyphen instead of
a real minus character (U+2212 MINUS SIGN).
The Texinfo manual says:
11.8.9 '@minus' (-): Inserting a Minus Sign
-------------------------------------------

font, this is a single hyphen, but in a proportional font, the symbol is
the customary length for a minus sign--a little longer than a hyphen,
shorter than an em-dash:

I don't know whether commit 9190ec13c30 applies only to lists or
fixes the general problem.
