This is something I dislike intensely about pro mathematicians. If you need that many symbols, document them properly and work to ensure they're on the flyleaf of every mathematics textbook. You can easily picture a math paper that reads like

  [    ], but [    ]; however [   ] and [   ], so [   ]....
with the spaces being filled in by signatures of famous mathematicians.
