@exercise 3: Unless I'm very much mistaken, these boxes are meant for transportation, not storage. So duration of cooling is a *constraint*, not a *goal* in their design. They just need to keep the content cold until it can be transferred to actively cooled storage or used, not as long as possible.
Thus, you use just enough insulation to satisfy the constraint and optimize for other goals, like material cost and space efficiency.
As Chris said, substack does have the Latex blocks, although it is still in beta. One of the devs (https://on.substack.com/p/office-hours-65/comment/12046172) clarified that they are still working on it and hopefully they'll make it more functional/less buggy over the coming months :)

Yeah. The actual goal is to minimize the total cost (of the box price, the shipping price, and the chance of product spoilage).
This is what Substack needs! Really good.
I just wish Substack allowed LaTeX-style formattting.
We do have this -- in the editor go to More -> LaTeX Block (Beta)
Is that what you're looking for?
Cool! It looks like you added it a month ago and I didn't realize.
