I used a IBM Selectrec with Proportional Spacing, throughout the 60's to type, formulate and publish a trade magazine....what a nightmare to set up with the string tension doowah on the back of the carriage....anyway, I had no "superscript" that I recall. Just typed, for instance..."th" and it would be proportionally spaced right at the bottom after the number....and looking at copies of the magazine which I still have, the spacing was an "abortion" at times. I think we should demand that Rather be put in a PigPen for the rest of his miserable life!
That would be cruel to the pigs, but Rather would probably like it. Pigs, tasty though they are, are pretty smart. They probably wouldn't have anything to do with him. Now if you would put in a pen with a Sow with piglets, that I might go for. It would be a short spectacle though.
