I have multiple ones and make comparisons between them. So I really want to know
what it uses. After all the information is there and that is what emacs actually does.
Should I not be able to easily know what it is doing under the hood. Emacs Self
Documentation should help me with that.

Explains with no examples or much description of ispell-program-name, which
for me is very important.
Because Gnu Aspell was designed to replace Ispell, how about deprecating Ispell
and simply have emacs-ispell be the general framework for orthographic study.
That would certainly solve the problem.
Would appreciate if you do not consider me a "Bad Actor".
