Given the difficulties with using proper maths notation, authors too often throw a whack of words into an attempt to express a concept that could be more accurately conveyed by a simple equation. I suppose it is time to start collecting examples of epub docs with maths and filing bugs against readers that don't handle them properly. -- George N.
