I think you're right.  Nicolas's view that we should not think of org as
a front-end for LaTeX is probably more to the point.  As Stefan has
noted, how LaTeX processes \[...\] in the context of paragraphs is much
more complex (as it should be as typography is an incredibly difficult
task to do well, and TeX/LaTeX generally does it very well).  Trying to
have org mirror LaTeX in some way is doomed to fail.

I am happy with \[...\] being treated as an inline element.  That is
more sympathetic to LaTeX than the opposite.
