Manual says "thirds are added to the root until it reaches the specified
number" which would be the correct thing to do.
But when specifying :13, the 11 is left out, so that the chord name
printed is "9/add13" instead of "13"

Yes, this was suggested by Amy Zapf a long time ago. In the standard
chord, the 3 and 11 combine very badly, so ususally the 11 is dropped.

I've added this to the docs.
