I don't really understand why LaTex is so bad a this. Isn't it the "standard digital format" for professional mathematics? Surely there are some uses for this kind notational nesting in the academic literature?

> I think only you and I are the only people who still calculates PEGG.

That's understandable, given that calculating the daily PEGG is a cumbersome task which isn't particularly rewarding for most people.

What I don't understand, is why you and I are the only people who are interested in the notation. Especially when it is the only currently available "standard notation" for googological numbers (currently only up to ωω, but still...).
