I am sure that answer is no but is there any difference between the following
two?

The first one was typed using \math <enter> to go into math mode.

The second one was done using the $ key.

The effect is exactly the same (I also can see that the math macro is nothing
more than a with|mode|math from std-markup.ts).

The question is: Why do we want to have two way of doing the same
thing---both ways are equally easy or hard to remember.

This is another test <math|N<rsub|1>+N<rsub|2>=\<alpha\>> is another test.

This is another test <with|mode|math|N<rsub|1>+N<rsub|2>=\<alpha\>> is
another test.
