Would any fix be available to skip '=' if the code starts with an equal sign?

The sequence of `= is the default way to start inline query, so you could change the prefix in Settings > Dataview > Inline Query Prefix.

Another option is to use <code>=</code> to display the equal sign as just the equal sign in a monospaced font. Yet another option is to insert another character in between the first backtick and the equal sign. If you can live with that, one option could be ` =`, another variant could be to insert a zero-width space at the same position.

I'm not sure on the exact details, but I do believe it's hard for Dataview to have this as a prefix and still be able to display only the equal sign if no other text is present.
