No, I think it's correct, and matches behaviour.

    $ seq 40 | sed '1s/^/.na\n/; 20{N; s/\n/<\\h"3i">/}' | nroff | grep .
    1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
    20<                              >21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
    31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40
    $

It's pointing out how that's unlike .ss's just described behaviour.

Cheers, Ralph.
