The HTML filtering will remove it as it's seen as a potentially open tag. Have added a bug ticket to see if our HTML filtering can be improved to allow for standalone <, but unlikely to see a fix anytime soon as it's a huge risk given so many locations use that filtering and we don't want them suddenly accepting tags by accident.
