In that case I would consider patching our in-tree mandoc to not warn
about Tn. Or request support for Tn or a well-defined replacement upstream.

I can see the benefit of keeping Tn around, as it /might/ potentially
create nice formatting for HTML. On the other hand, I don't like the
idea of not following the linter.
