@rich-iannone It looks like gt:::process_text() is being too eager in detecting/parsing latex here:

I'm unsure how to protect that HTML containing the regex string from pointblank's end (with I() or otherwise). Alternatively, (perhaps as a short term fix) I think it'd also make sense to globally turn this off for pointblank agents/multiagents somehow.

Thanks for filing this issue, and thank you @yjunechoe for investigating. I'll address this problem in gt and I'll submit a PR soon to fix immediately in pointblank!

I tried using fmt_passthrough() in pointblank for the values column (which just passes through HTML text w/o escaping). That didn't solve the problem. So, my solution in the forthcoming PR is to use $ instead of the $ character. It's not ideal but it does seem to solve the immediate problem.
