Very true. The problem for me, as I mentioned in the

were to be formatted print-style as small raised numbers, that would
help a lot in terms of reducing clutter.
There is an assumption that HTML size formatting is a useful way to
differentiate certain text. It is not, as some of us cant stand the
common use of small text, and set our browsers to show an actual
readable size. I know that a lot of times people use size formatting
in templates, but these are negligible. Whatever convention for the
display of reading basic text, including reference links, has to be
functional for the rest of us.
