Follow-up Comment #11, bug #54101 (project groff):
[comment #10 comment #10:]
> The core problem is that when adjusting, groff stretches word spaces and not
sentence spaces, yet the documentation states (or at least strongly implies)
groff may stretch both.
>
> The original problematic sentence (as documented in comment #0) was "In fill
mode, the values specify the minimum distance." The values in question are
the two parameters to .ss, only one of which (in current groff) is actually a
minimum distance; the other is a fixed distance. The cited commit recasts
this sentence as "When adjusting, the values specify minimum distances."
While overall a better wording, it retains the inaccuracy of the original.
Thanks. I'll zero in on this point and take another look. I got pretty
distracted digging into the internals of env.cpp and node.cpp.
