This statement of mine is incorrect. You _do_ need to interpret it insofar as
you schedule a line break to occur at the next word break.
I was thinking only of `\p`'s implications for adjustment. In _mdoc_, and in
_groff_ when adjustment is disabled, no such implications arise.

Hello, world!
Goodbye, world!
