Oct 14, 2010 · To say "Superscripts aren't really necessary." Sort of misses the point given that we're already writing in LaTeX and so presumably we care enough about the formatting that the author of the OQ (or anyone else who arrived at this page later) probably already thought through that it would be easier to just write "2nd", "3rd" &c. and decided that they wanted to go through the trouble of having superscripted ordinals.
