I guess what is most concerning to me is that Subscript seems to be a Format-like function that accepts symbols, while SubscriptBox is usually a container for strings and other box forms. However, since there is no help page on Subscript, it has a very short help description, and appears to be read protected, I am left wondering exactly what it does and if I am using it incorrectly in place of SubscriptBox.
