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?..
