indeed "!" -- my fault.
Note that at the R sprint 2023, printCoefmat() has been one of
the small topics
https://contributor.r-project.org/r-project-sprint-2023/projects/tweak-printCoefmat/
on which we hoped to make progress -- also prompted by your (Shu
Fai) good question, on this list,
https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2023-July/477688.html
on how to improve the details of the `zap.ind` setting.
Whereas the R sprint project lead to some investigations, but
unfortunately did not yet lead to improve the code generally
... even though we *did* try some changes, but IIRC they all had
their flaws and hence were not good enough to warrant a change
of code.
So, for now, we should at least change that part of the help
page -- finally!
