Hello everyone, I am sorry for all the problems that have arisen. I wanted to contribute to the discussion somewhat.
1) Personally I often have double subscripts i.e. expressions of the form $ \int_{a_i}^{a_{i+1}} $ (I am a PhD in math) 2) LaTeX (or at least AMS) forbids expressions of the type $a_b_c$ and $a^b^c$. ERROR: Double subscript. --- TeX said --- l.106 $a_b_ c$ --- HELP --- There are two subscripts in a row in a mathematical formula---something like x_{2}_{3}, which makes no sense. The only acceptable syntax is: $a_{b_c}$ An idea would be to never make a _ disappear if it is already super/sub-script fontified. Also disable fontification of sub/superscripts on any line such that there are two _ not separated by a { and the same for ^ I am trying to implement something like it but I am no expert in elisp so it'll take me some time.
