For quite a while, I'm afraid. It was put into place to A) not only make it conform with other Wikias (where I've seen it only used as a footnote at the end of a sentence, but also B) make it easier to read. If the text suddenly shrinks to half the size of the rest of the sentence, then goes back to normal size, it's pretty daunting. Especially on mobile, one's eye would have to keep moving up and down.
