user154: According to Shall we have MathJax?, to enable MathJax would require a demonstrable need.
How can we demonstrate this need? Perhaps by creating a CW list of questions that would benefit from proper notation?
To what extent is this a catch-22, in that the absence of MathJax restricts the ability to demonstrate its use. Questions that require math might be asked elsewhere, like stats.SE, physics.SE, etc, even though they would be appropriate here. 

user154: A Community Wiki list of questions that would likely benefit from the use of MathJax.
Many, but not all, questions demonstrate the need for math by use of ASCII math. When no ASCII math is present, it is clear that the explanation would be more clear or comprehensive if MathJax were enabled.
(please contribute, maintaining alphabetical order to avoid duplicates): 
Alternatives to fittest-win and Moran processes as simple mathematical models of selection
ATP cost for gene expression
Can I estimate leaf temperature from air temperature? What other information would be required?
Do we get 1/4 of our genes from each grandparent?
Genetic Models for Natural Selection? ? ? ?
How deep in the soil can a seed be placed and still develop into a plant/tree?
How distantly related are eusocial insects? Aren't members of a species much more related than 1/4, 1/2, or 3/4?
How many genes do we share with our mother?
Macromolecule levels in daughter cells after fission
Pedigree Probability of Autosomal Recessive Trait
Relative Property of Alleles
Understanding Membrane / Resting Potential from the perspective of ions?
What are the units of Q10 (temperature sensitivity)?
Why dont "growing degree days" have units of degrees Celsius (or do they)?

user222: 
the absence of MathJax restricts the ability to demonstrate its use

This is an important point. 
A related point is that the absence of MathJax makes the site less useful for expert-level questions (and thus less attractive / useful to experts), as discussed in Should we worry about the amount of non-expert content on the site?
