    1: Basically where characters are set above the top line, for example ᵃ, ᵇ, ᶜ. These letters can be either typeset or from Unicode. Also for some reason people think there's no superscript i in Unicode and they replace it with ᶦ, but they know ⁿ exists when ⁱ is in the same Unicode block as it. That's probably unrelated, the actual information is next. So basically some examples are ¹, ², and ³ are things you might recognize from mathematics, but for some reason there's no superscript pi in Unicode when we've got the superscript golden ratio (ᵠ)? Oh yeah and there's also a subscript one too, ᵩ. Anyways, using typesets you can make any character superscript (or subscript), but you can't copy and paste the formatting, but it's cool I guess.
