I only have HTML versions of my documents with <m>...</m>. I also use
tth for everything - it does not look pretty on the screen, but is
functional and legible. I found the other rendering mechanisms a bit
too limited in what they can render, and can live with the ruggedness
of tth (apparently, so can my students). In print, the same documents
come out pretty.
