What you call "not necessary", I call a game changer. As of now, one has to mix and match $$ and \(\) based on the context (such as "-th"). It makes mathematical writing in both harder to /read/ and harder to /change/. Consider: Let $r_i$ denote the \(i\)-th rotation of $t$ with a suffix of $\ell|t|$ characters deleted, for […] Me, if I could, I would pay money for this feature, for it would allow me to use $$ consistently, focusing on mathematics instead of markup idiosyncrasies of "rotation $i$" versus "\(i\)-th rotation". Further, \(\) brings 100% more characters than $$, resulting in more noise in the sentence.
