What is a superscript letter/number is part of a name? Take for example, the anime and manga Ranma<sup>1/2</sup> Now I suppose you could write it as Ranma1/2, but that would be incorrect. Same can be said for subscript. So let's say that a web author has a list of book if manga, either it's a reference site for these books, or it's a retail site selling them, doesn't really matter for this example. The author wants to note the manga listed above, since he isn't using <sup> for presentation but rather as part of a valid name to a product, it becomes structural.
