Yes. After editing the source I would like to see a hint of how things would
look like, and also
to make it easy for me to follow the latex code itself. I also use it in
conjunction with prettify-symbols.

For instance, consider
{\begin{aligned}
\langle \psi _{{jk}},\psi _{{lm}}\rangle
&= \int _{{-\infty }}^{\infty }\psi _{{jk}}(x)\overline {\psi _{{lm}}(x)}dx\\
&= \delta _{{jl}}\delta _{{km}}
\end{aligned}}
I would not like to have the _ and {} showing in the expression \psi_{jk}

In industrial applications, equations are customarily very terse' with lot of
spaces wasted printing _ ^ { }
Where the font change and height placement make it obvious whether something is
superscript or subscript,
and what things are being grouped together with {}.
