That's good, but I understand there's a lot of subtleties involved in
getting good typography and you might want to target -mom once you've
got a feel for how groff.  That way you're not re-implementing it one
revelation after another.  And that's assuming you or your users will
spot and request the improvement.

Yes, and they might like some of the options -mom provides;  see
