comment Normal \relax vs. frozen \relax
Generally speaking, \ifx only looks one level deep: it checks whether all tokens have the same indices into the equivalence table, but does not check whether they have the same meaning. The same works with \let\foo=\relax: Now \foo is a token with the meaning of \relax but a different name.

comment Normal \relax vs. frozen \relax
On the other hand, \expandafter\ifx\x\relax is true. This works for all primitives that have a frozen version and therefore appear twice in the equivalence table. With LuaTeX, you can create additional copies of primitives using tex.enableprimitives, and they show the same behavior.

comment How to lower the superscripts (and raise the subscripts)
AFAIK setting the extended font dimensions is ineffective in XeTeX (they don't actually get applied), so you can do this only in LuaTeX (\Umathsupshiftup=12pt).
