There is a text editor for math though. Wolfram. Also there are programming languages that allow math typesetting, like Julia.

I usually use a combination of excalidraw and Julia with Pluto.jl for this type of work. However, it’s annoying that Pluto is a linear top-down notebook, requires technical knowledge to setup (not much but still) and work is separate between both tools. This looks great its combines both tools. They mention proving theorems but I see no mention of automated theorem provers like Lean or Agda. Hopefully they’ll integrate. Seems like python integration is coming though.

They specifically address your point on Wolfram: Others might ask about Wolfram or MatLab. But these aren’t math editors either—they’re tools designed for calculations, modeling, and data analysis. If you’re proving a theorem, exploring new ideas, or seeking the equation of everything, you’re still left with pen and paper.

Skill issue. People just don't RTFM its been in the language since I was in undergrad. Also, most of my programming track was from being around mathematicians and physicists who did exactly writing papers and proving theorems using Mathematica lol. People are just allergic to paying for software, but they will spend $2K on a MacBook. https://www.wolfram.com/language/fast-introduction-for-math-students/en/mathematical-typesetting/
