Thanks.

This bit confuses me:

  +This variable can be useful for modifying low-level TLS
  +connection parameters (for instance if you need to connect to a
  +host that only accepts a specific algorithm), but general Emacs
  +network security is handled by the Network Security Manager.

The "but" part confuses me: did you mean "however", perhaps?  That is,
did you mean to say that the default is nil so that the NSM could do
its job under user control?
