I see that Symbolic Math in Mathcad Prime is more correct than in Mathcad 15:

Do you know others examples?

I see. So it's actually a proportional symbol, not alpha.

Works correct (not more or lesss :-D) here in Mathcad 15, too.

Maybe your infinity sign is not interpreted as infinity because you type "infinity." for example?

Or you fooled yourself with one of your Str-Shift-K tricks (e.g. by typing infinity Str-Shift-K Space)?

Actually, if you look closely that is an alpha, not an infinity. I noticed that before, but thought it was just a bad bitmap. Every other character looks fine though, including the infinity in the limit expression, so it's not just a bad bitmap.
