I tend to opt for writing plaintext LaTeX, and if the reader wants it to be pretty, they can use TeX the World (although it looks like this is now unmaintained and only viable in chrome).
In the case of MathJax, the fall back is you just get some inline latex.

It still requires an Internet connection, does it not? Many people
prefer to browse without JavaScript anyway (myself included) and if the
documentation suddenly requires JavaScript to view properly, this is a
problem.
