Latex is a nicer way to write equations.
You can use a sigma character, for example, and move characters around to create equations, but it’s cumbersome.
Plus, it’s a nice little language for formulas. Someone else might give you the Latex and you could copy and paste that into your notes.

My point is that when you want to make your notes look neater, replacing your handwriting with Latex equations would look much nicer.
