Why we shouldn't install texvc now and then fix it later (assuming that the essay is persuasive on other points). Basically, the reason is that supporting LaTeX directly (as Axel and I want) won't be backwards compatible with current texvc; fixing it later will break some things.
Is there anything that couldn't be fixed by a script (such as texvc itself modified to spit out the preferred LaTeX forms) which would hunt down and fix articles with problem math?
