 ### Fixed
-- **🔧 Subscript/superscript scope leak** - The token colour rule targeted the generic `markup.subscript` / `markup.superscript` TextMate scopes, which other grammars (standard Markdown, AsciiDoc, reStructuredText) also emit. Because `editor.tokenColorCustomizations` is contributed globally, this greyed out subscript/superscript text in every file type, not just rxiv documents. The scopes are now namespaced to `markup.subscript.rxiv` / `markup.superscript.rxiv`, and the grammar gained matching rules for `~subscript~` and `^superscript^`, so the colouring is both scoped to rxiv files and actually applied (the previous rule matched nothing the grammar emitted).

The `~`/`^` delimiters are also scoped as `punctuation.definition.{subscript,superscript}.{begin,end}.rxiv`, consistent with the bold/italic rules, so themes can style the delimiters independently of the content.
