That's only an advantage if people don't abuse it by making equations 
unreadably small. Some equations have small symbols in exponent or 
subscript...

Assuming the left column shows the size of regular text for reference, I 
prefer the third column because the second one is too small. Rescale the 
second one and it becomes better.

I just want to make sure that the scale difference is an accident and does 
not reflect an intention to make equations smaller than regular text in 
the doc.
