Comment (by bruce.miller@…):

 Hmmm... now that I think about it, since LaTeXML is being "formally"
 installed (as part of the same installation system as texlive, itself), it
 may be more appropriate to use the main TEXMF tree, rather than the
 TEXMFLOCAL one (which you'd probably do when installing as a separate
 package).  So, I probably should use that existing variable for the
 texlive variant without needing a new one. [In fact, we'd discussed in a
 separate ticket #47972, that we probably don't need a separate variant:
 we'd simply put things in the right place to be used IF texlive were
 installed.  I'll have to do some experimenting...]

 That reasoning may or may not apply to installing LaTeXML's style files
 into MacTeX's TEXMF tree, perhaps that should still be TEXMFLOCAL (not
 100% clear on the conventions).  So, in any case, a variable that pointed
 to ''some'' MacTeX TEXMF would be very useful to simplify the +MacTeX
 variant, and make it less prone to bitrot.
