Good. I don't think the people at SIAM really care about typesetting.
In the TeXed articles you regularly find evidence that they consider
TeX to be an excuse for dispensing with proofreading altogether.

And of course the mix of Computer Modern with Times Roman
is too awful to mention. It doesn't cost any trouble to
set everything in Times Roman. Ultimately they can just
buy the knowledge from the AMS...

This one is hard. My guess would be to do every display equation 
in a \vbox, and in case of an \endproof take the \lastbox and measure 
its depth.
