Being as ksh is my shell of choice, I'm all for it. But given that
basis, I was surprised to find that neither "type" nor "whence" is
supported by the POSIX shell.

Hardly -- "type" is probably more portable than "command -v" is.
Particularly since "command -v" is optional in the latest version of
POSIX (it's part of the User Portability Utilities option).
