I had a moment to look and this is actually strange.

It fails on e.g. Japanese outer/inner quotation marks in section 3.9.4.2.
But those were introduced in 2016 (89ce0c9069d3), not in 2.4  cycle.

Both 2.3 and 2.4 produce from UG
\item [{\ensuremath{\lceil}\textsf{Outer}\ensuremath{\rfloor}\textsf{~and~}\ensuremath{\llceil}\textsf{inner}\ensuremath{\rrfloor}}] Produces

but after 2.4->2.3 conversion, 2.3 produces
utf8 char of \lceil instead of {\ensuremath{\lceil}

I wanted to look how the converted .lyx file looks in raw format and tried to save the converted UG and lyx crashed :/
Second attempt worked and I see no difference in the quotes within .lyx file and no obvious candidates in the header, except maybe different font options(?)...

Can't dig deeper now,
