When you render it for proper typesetting, do the parentheses around dy/dx disappear? (Oh, I guess you've removed them in your edit.)
If they do, it seems like an error-prone way to write your math.
If they don't, it seems like it will make your math look terrible.
Supposing that the parentheses aren't necessary, as implied by your edit: how does AsciiMath determine that e^y isn't in the numerator in "e^y dy/dx", or (worse) in the denominator in "d/dx e^y"?
It seems somewhat less noisy than the LaTeX version, but not much; assuming I can insert whitespace harmlessly:
