Dec 31, 2021 at 18:16 comment added Jason S if I use scriptstyle rather than scriptscriptstyle it looks very good... if you edit your answer to include that as an alternative, I'll accept it.
Dec 31, 2021 at 18:13 comment added Steven B. Segletes @JasonS You could combine aspects of the two answers with something like: $\lim\limits_{\scalebox{.7}{$\scriptscriptstyle\Delta P \to 0$}}$
Dec 31, 2021 at 18:11 comment added Steven B. Segletes @JasonS That is because, at least for the default computer-modern font, smaller fontsize is squeezed more vertically than horizontally (a choice of the font designer).
Dec 31, 2021 at 18:10 comment added Jason S hmm... that makes it vertically smaller, but doesn't change the horizontal scale that much (I wanted it not to stick out so much past the lim)
