@Sean Surprised me, too, but only because I sadly missed the formatting hints entirely when solving... haha As @dutchiris points out, in the clue 'hard to believe', [lie] is in bold. Likewise, [ism] is capitalised in 'dismantle' of 17a, [ion] is subscript in 'conditioned' of 27a etc. As a writer I don't love it, but for a themed puzzle, it's fun, and creative at that. :)
