Makes sense. Also, see a similar idea being discussed in
https://list.orgmode.org/orgmode/87o7jlzxgn.fsf@localhost/

I recommend the following:

If the value starts from ", use Elisp's `read':
   |"# <<" ">>"
   (read (current-buffer)) ; => "# <<"
   otherwise, consider read until the first whitespace.
   |#<<; >>;
   (re-search-forward (rx (1+ (not whitespace))))
   #<<;|
   
However, there may be edge cases like

"<< >>"
"<< >>
<< << >>
<< "asd" >>
