Comment:
My humble apologies. I don't know why I thought it said
"A primitive root of `n`. This is the smallest primitive root."
That means we should, in theory, fix
"`k` is a nonnegative number."
and
"assumed to be a positive integer possessing a primitive root"
But I agree that unless it's very easy to update the patch for this, this
should go in. So I'm inclined to put positive review. Docs look right,
still passes tests.
