According to that same research, <math> is, on the Web, less frequent than the following elements: <m>, <e>, <rem>, <tab>, <yr>, <prohibits>, <your>, <lable>, <text-spez>, etc. It was present on less than 0.002% of the pages the research covered. (To give an idea of scale, <h8> is used on more than 0.003%, so if we avoid <math> because of this, we should probably introduce <h7> and <h8> into HTML, since we're saying that's an important enough level to worry about.)

The last statement doesn't follow, for what it's worth. There's a difference between "introduce support for tags that currently do nothing in all UAs" and "don't introduce support for a tag that other UAs do nothing for because it will make us behave differently from those UAs".

I do agree that it sounds like this won't be too big an issue.
