Yannis> But it [CMR] should not be the default mode [for \sin]
I wish to add two arguments for CMR
indeed being the default mode.
1) (administrative) CMR *must* be chosen when we move from
Palatino to a Greek or Russian font.
2) (aesthetic) In osudeG.sty (a math book style for de
Gruyter found on matups.matups.fr) I give a revamped
version of \mathsurround that allows math to be gracefully
distanced from prose. (Knuth's \mathsurround is unbearable
when prose punctuation follows math.) It better gives
a sense that two languages are alternating: math and (say)
English. The CMR choice makes the math more coherent.
