I have Javascript disabled, so I guess that's the reason.
It would be nice if the site didn't fall back to that all-backslashes
representation for non-JS visitors.
You can't really expect to browse the modern web without Javascript.
Sorry, you can. I do it every day.

Is

raw latex?

Do you consider this:
\[\begin{split}\sum_{m \leq i < n} f(i)\end{split}\]
readable?
I can't make heads nor tails of it.

It would be fine if we could simply have the HTML+CSS that MathJax
generates.

That's a gross exaggeration.
Nicely formatted math is possible, even in HTML+CSS - MathJax
demonstrates it, the final result after it did its work is indeed just HTML.

I would be unable to even word such a requests, because my knowledge
about how these web pages are built is practically nonexistent.
AFAICT MathJax scans the page for <span class="math">, parses the Latex
it finds, and replaces the contents of the <span> with whatever output
format is desired.
That's essentially broken by design, since you can't have a better
format than Latex as a fallback display. Unless MathJax allows a better
input format by itself.
