But after I close the MathJax editor, the equation shows an error. Reopening the equation editor, I see that \(...\) was changed to <anki-mathjax>...</anki-mathjax>:

A workaround is to use \text{$...$} instead, but the live preview should be able to handle \text{\(...\)} because it’s valid LaTeX code.
