Indeed. A LaTeX environment has got the same syntactical value as a paragraph (both are elements): they cannot be nested. > something that LaTeX does or does not do depending on whether > you surround an environment with whitespace. True, that's why there's also inline \[...\]. But you have to accept paragraph limitations (no empty line, do not start a line with list markers...). Another difference is that LaTeX environments can be given a name and a caption, allowing them to be cross-referenced. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
