The big advantage of using code blocks is that is guarantees that their sanitizer doesn't mess with the contents. This is a pretty big plus.
Also, you can of course still have mermaid code blocks; just don't put `mermaid` after the three backticks. The code block won't have any syntax highlighting, but in the case of `math`, this wouldn't make sense anyway.
