I build websites for scientific communities where we often require HTML for
writing molecules or formulas. Here are a couple of simple examples:
The acetylene chemical compound is written like this in HTML:
C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>2</sub>
if you strip the subscript tags, you end up with C2H2 which does not mean
anything. A number in front of a molecule formula indicate the number of
molecules, and subscript number refers to an atom in a given molecule. You need
to be able to keep these tags intact in order to keep your formula meaningful.
Let's take another example involving a simple formula written like this in
HTML: E = mc<sup>2</sup>. If you strip out HTML, you end up with E = mc2 and
you will fail your exam.
