How to do Symbols, subscripts, superscripts etc. in st.experimental_data_editor column headers without unicode?

Summary

I created this little dataframe below using st.experimental_data_editor, but I can’t get the symbols and sub/super-scripts working for column headers. Is there a way to get get it done without using unicode?

Steps to reproduce

Code snippet:

df = pd.DataFrame(
    [
    {"Section": "12inx30ft", "$b_{w}$": 12, "$\mu^2$": 30},
    {"Section": "8inx47.2ft", "$\alpha_{w}$": 8, "$x^a$": 47.2},
    ]
) 
edited_df = st.experimental_data_editor(df, num_rows="dynamic")

If applicable, please provide the steps we should take to reproduce the error or specified behavior.

Expected behavior:
Symbols, Sub/Super-Scripts

Actual behavior:
For example, it shows up as $b_{w}$
