What this part means
The lower label selects a particular version, component, or indexed member of the quantity. For example, x₀ and xₜ can be values at different positions.
Its job in the formula
A subscript distinguishes a version, component, step, or member of a quantity. It does not automatically mean multiplication.

The passage around this formula
Two worldlines held at accelerations and therefore differ only by which Planck-shaped curve their normalized spectrum traces, and identical accelerations trivially return =0 — the reparametrization check every metric has to pass, satisfied here for the most literal reason available: identical trajectories are, in fact, identical.
Learn the underlying idea
A subscript is a label attached below a symbol. It often selects a time step, component, category, or member of a sequence.
