What I mean is that literal LaTeX code is LaTeX code, despite the
redundancy. IMHO, Org's only duty in that case is to export such literal
code as valid LaTeX code, but Org "does not know" what that literal code
consists of. The user who enters the literal LaTeX code is the one who
has the duty to add the necessary elements to that code so that it is
compiled correctly by LaTeX. Let's look at this as a territorial
question:

Scenario A:

@@LaTeX:\libebreak@@ [ipsum] ==> the problem is in Org territory

Scenario B:

lorem\\ @@latex:[ipsum]@@ ==> the problem is in the user's territory
