Phew! Would it be reasonable to say that the differences between
national mathematical style is about as pronounced as that between
English-speaking diciplines?

Indeed! The base font (the font used for setting operators such as \sin,
\cos, etc.) doesn't have to be Cork-encoded, it can use whatever encoding
you are using for your text fonts. The default will probably be Cork
though.

Thanks!
