    groff(7): Fix style nits.
    
    * Consistently say "'numerical' expression".  I prefer adjective forms
      ending in "-ic" where this does not create ambiguity with a noun
      (contrast "numeric" with "cynic"), but this is the shorter path to
      consistent usage in the page for now.
    * Tighten wording.
    
    "An American complaining about the English usage patterns of the
    U.K.--that's ironical," said Tom, as he incited an historic furore.
