Often I (and I expect others) want to qualify certain statements we make in discussions with further elaboration (sometimes to dissuade others from barking up the wrong tree), but don't want to clutter the main body of text with intrusive parenthesised comments, a wall of text acting as footnote comments, or [ hidden] tags that don't show anything when you mouse over for one reason or another.
Anyway of accomodating this?

We could say to the people that want latex for setting nice maths what's wrong with, for example:
n
---
\ . . . . . . a(1-r^(n+1))
/ a*r^i = ---------------
--- . . . . . . . 1-r
i=0
it gets the job done doesn't it!? 😕
