I’ve come to the same conclusion, especially since I often end up using the same equations for both web and LaTeX documents, so it’s nice to have the same rendering engine everywhere, especially once you start making small tweaks to spacing etc.

One issue I’ve run into is that it’s not always that easy to get the style of the SVG images right, especially when it comes to sizing & placement. Did you find a good way to e.g. ensure that inline equations have the correct baseline alignment? Or a good method to ensure that equation sizes always match the font size of the paragraph they’re in?

I try not to ever use inline equations. Text is text, code is code, maths is maths, keeping it scoped to their own blocks tends to work better for readers.
