We do have a bloat problem in user_properties table: T54777: user_properties table bloat not one single property is problematic but they are adding up. There is a maint script that can drop the property if it's all useless now but this has valid cases I think?
Someone with db access needs to take care of that. It's a simple task to clean old user preferences. Theoretically, one could also load and save all user preferences from time to time (not only for math) and store them again to eliminate invalid values. But why would one care? The math extension assumes the content can be invalid and returns to a default value, so this is not an issue from the Math extension perspective.

Gadgets also shows similar message under Gadgets preference tab and it has the same problem
Also, the default is the correct one, so I guess in case this gets done, we'll be able to move users' preferences to the correct format just by dropping the date rows in the user_properties table.
