I did not know that, but it makes sense.

TeX is most common for people writing any kind of mathematics, including engineers, physicists, and computer scientists.  However, my point was slightly different -- in a text that is almost entirely in Sanskrit (not a contemporary translation of a Sanskrit work or a work presented mathematics originally found in a Sanskrit text), there is unlikely to be much use for math notation.
