Why is the spellchecker in Firefox so awful? Its like at about a Grade 3 level. So many words aren't in it.

I have this problem all the time but don't remember it before. Was there a change? Did someone really illiterate become part of the design team? Today's problem word was neuropathy. Not exactly an uncommon word in our diabetic prone society. Sometimes its words way more common than that. This makes no sense at all.

As far as I know, Firefox still uses Hunspell as its spell-checker and source for its English-language dictionaries. https://hunspell.github.io/
