Don't warn about special cases #330

Open max-allan-surevine opened 2 years ago

max-allan-surevine commented 2 years ago

Ignore "special case"

I used the phrase "special case" obviously not referring to any sort of disability.

13:51-13:58 warning special may be insensitive, use has a disability, person with a disability, people with disabilities instead special retext-equality

Expected behaviour

Alexjs should be clever enough to recognise common phrases that are not offensive and not warn me about the not very special case of "special case".

There are so many of these examples. "premature" also raises a warning as a "profanity".

This issue is about special. You have an issue with something else.

Also, please see the readme about what this project is. It’s about checking your docs for things that might be a problem. And then you, the human, can choose if it actually is a problem, for you.
