Our LaTeX support isn’t amazing, but probably better than Wordpress. Did you try using ours, and if so, did you run into any problems? (I could probably translate the writeup you have into our format in 15 minutes or so, so it seems doable to me)
Even though I just copied it out of the PDF, I could make most LaTeX work almost immediately by just selecting the text and pressing “CMD+4”, and mostly just had to insert some underscores and exponentiation symbols. If you copied the text from a LaTeX editor, it probably would be less than 5 minutes of effort.
The LW LaTeX support does seem to be much better, but it’s still quite annoying. For example you’ll notice if you copy from PDF the logs get messed up, and worse would happen with original LaTeX (\section, \begin{equation}, etc. all need to get converted).
There’s moderately annoying additional inconvenience because I have to convert LyX to LaTeX and probably scrap a bunch of other LaTeX code but I expect it takes > 15 minutes.
I would be happy to take a bet on whether it would take me or you > 15 minutes, given that the PDF version only took me around 8. But ~10 minutes is still a pretty significant inconvenience, though there are probably few things we can do to get the effort of translating below that.

It took me about 8 minutes by the clock, and here it is:
