As a follow-up to the discussions about the new Math rendering options, I'd
like to raise the question of how to write the preferences in way that will
really be helpful to the users.
I made a little patch at
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/167024/
It only fixes some minor things, and the problem is wider: How is a person
supposed to choose the best option?
What are "modern browsers"?
If one thing is "recommended" for modern browsers, and another "improves
(or enhances) rendering on modern", which one should I choose?
What is "slow"?
Why is improved visual rendering mixed with accessibility in *two* options?
Which accessibility features do I get in each option? Are they even
different?
These options confused me for years as a Wikipedia user. The recent
developments in Math are great technically (kudos to Moritz, Gabriel, TheDJ
and everybody else who was involved!), but the options are still not so
helpful. Let's fix them! Suggestions?..
