As I understand Fabrice's mail, it's only about display of scripts in
Org buffers (when org-pretty-entities-include-sub-superscripts is
non-nil).  So rather than displaying

(+)   \(a^nb^n\)

as

      \(aⁿᵇⁿ\)

it would be displayed as

(*)   \(aⁿbⁿ\)

Of course, it /only/ makes sense to change how it is displayed in
math-mode, for which (*) is the more accurate depiction of (+).

If what was indeed what Fabrice had in mind I think it makes sense.
But I also have been bothered by how (+) is displayed in the past. . .
