Nothing in the repository is filler any more. The last of it was the docs
index, and that page now has real writing, so the dictionary that let filler
past has nothing left to permit.

Gone

  • "language": "en,lorem", now "en"
  • the @cspell/dict-lorem-ipsum import and its dictionaries entry
  • the package itself, and its lockfile entry
  • consectetuer and Potenti from project-terms.txt, which were there to
    spell the pages that no longer exist

Both words were checked whole-word and case-sensitively across every file type
first. Each appeared in project-terms.txt and nowhere else. 71 terms remain.

Why this is not merely tidying

cspell lints Markdown. With the dictionary in place, filler reaching a scanned
file would have passed silently, which is the opposite of useful. Verified both
directions:

  • an ordinary typo is still caught, so the checker is still wired up
  • a line of lorem in a Markdown file is now four unknown words rather than a
    clean pass

Checks

nps test passes, all 17.

Left alone

_layouts/handbook-content-g-devdocs-style.liquid and _includes/key-point.liquid
are unused today but are wanted later, so they stay.

Nothing in the repository is filler any more, so the dictionary that let
filler through has nothing left to permit. Out go the lorem-ipsum
dictionary, the package supplying it, and the two Latin words in
project-terms.txt that no file uses.

The check now reads Latin as a set of unknown words, which is what it
is. If filler ever reaches a file cspell lints, it fails there rather
than passing quietly.
