May 15, 2020 at 19:27 comment added Dmitri Pavlov @LSpice: Yes. Adding dollar signs around formulas is a trivial affair, and if this hasn't been done, then one must operate under presumption that it is for a good reason. I often see people editing a recent answer only to add a dollar sign for some superscript. I honestly do not understand why people are doing this.
May 15, 2020 at 16:13 comment added LSpice OK, fair enough. So I assume that you would also prefer not to have the answer edited to include MathJax?
May 13, 2020 at 20:10 comment added Dmitri Pavlov @LSpice: Copy-paste is severely broken when using MathJax formulas. It also takes forever to render on Chromium because currently it does not support MathML. That's why for simple formulas that only need subscripts and superscripts it's better not to use MathJax. I think my objection to MathJax will be removed if they can fix copy-paster and Chromium implements MathML.
