Was probably written in one system, formatted with the 45 as superscript, then copied into a CMS that converted the superscript back to regular script. Lots of popsci type publications end up having this happen.

Thank you! It was an excellent read. Had me from start to end.
This is yet another reason I'm promoting the ^45 "magnitude notation"[0].
