Readers could get the impression that the script for fulfilling the conditions is called scriptPubKey in code (which is not true).

The rephrasing is a good idea, thanks! Could you drop the backtics? Two reasons: (1) they won't be rendered by markdown everywhere this is used, which is why this field is called summary_max_255_characters_no_formatting and (2) scriptPubKey is used in most Bitcoin documentation without being rendered as a code string.
