Bold, italics, and highlighting do not correctly style math/latex within them

Steps to reproduce

  1. On windows, create a new file in your vault or sandbox vault
  2. In that new file, write a new line with strong text and a $formula$ within the strong section (see image)

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide?

Yes

Expected result

I expected the style of bold/italic text to be applied to the math formula

Actual result

The bold/italic style does not apply to the math section, which is very annoying since I use colored bold and italic text, so having default-colored formulas is jarring.

Additional information

An example of why I care:

The reason I have made this a bug report instead of a feature request is because Android already does this (according to this post Make math expressions highlight-able with `==` - #5 by Fable)

We don’t support this and I am not sure we should.

But anyway feel free to open a FR.
