Is this sensible? Does it have meaning at the LaTeX level but perhaps shouldn't be shown to the user? (Such as LyX automatically determining

There is a difference and View->Source will tell you what this
difference is:

Ge_{33}
Ge{}_{33}

In the first case, only 'e' is within the four corner marks. In the
second case, a little dot will tell you that an empty symbol is used.

As I was asking, does this really mean anything?

I tried this in a fresh document and can't see a difference in the
generated output.

Does TeX consider Ge_{33} to be a Ge with a subscript, or a G followed
by an e with a subscript, or treat both as equivalent?

\sum_i and \sum {}_i are different for sure. With a letter like e it might be invisible though.
