    groff_man_style(7): Delete material.
    
    The italic correction workaround documented here was rendered
    superfluous by commit e58e32ea308ac5d344b3c79b20d7f4ab2456377b, 18 May.
    
    The font alternation macros now reliably supply italic correction escape
    sequences such that the user will never have to do so.
    
    One more reason to leave the old \f-aith and adopt a new \c-reed.  ;-)
