Follow-up Comment #4, bug #59030 (project groff):


[comment #3 comment #3:]
> It makes sense if there is an ordering over diagnostic levels, and not if it
doesn't.

s/it doesn't/there isn't/

"Level" does indeed imply that there is, but that language is not used in
groff documentation.  As I recall the state of the documentation and its
implications to the novice user, errors and warnings are simply different
things the program can yell about.
