About the subscript equals sign symbol

The Subscript Equals Sign is a small equals sign drawn below the baseline, matching the design and weight of other subscript characters. It is used in mathematical and chemical notation where an equals sign must appear as a subscript, typically in formulas or expressions that involve subscripts nested within larger equations. As a subscript form of the standard equals sign, it helps maintain consistent vertical alignment when combining subscripted variables with equalities.
