Sorry, my claim was about the two notations: that the TeX one is writable, and the MathML is not.

I’m not claiming that a JavaScript parser and complete renderer for TeX is better than a JavaScript parser that renders via MathML. The second option may indeed be more efficient - but making the browser parse a sensible notation for maths instead of an XML crapfest would be better than either.
