This PR amends leanprover#13317 to suggest `:= (rfl)` as the recommended way to avoid a theorem to be automatically marked `[defeq]`, for consistency with existing documentation. Rationale: the special treatment of `:= rfl` is based on syntax, not the proof term, so it’s appropriate to use different syntax. And also I like the way it reads like a “muted whisper of `rfl`”.
