Comment (by kcrisman):
`pretty_print` may be standard but how on earth is a non-coding
mathematician or teacher supposed to come up with that? I've never heard
of it outside of Sage in "real-life" conversation about stuff. Maybe
`print_pretty` or `print_fancy` or `print_cool` - at least that is
available with tab-completion! I would never come upon that in a million
years - it's also not `typeset_nicely` or anything like that. I hope it
is obvious that no one outside of developer circles would know what "rich
output" even means. They just want a way to make stuff render with
!MathJax, if they know what that is.
I agree that the `html` behavior from earlier is not consistent with e.g.
`latex` but that doesn't mean it's bad... but I know I don't have energy
to fight that, and long-run it is probably ok. But there needs to be an
easy way to say "print this as html", and this is not very easy to intuit.
(And for the record, `HT<tab>` will give a different list from `ht<tab>`,
but you already knew that, which I just had to test because I couldn't
remember if it did.)
