Follow-up Comment #1:

I got this pretty wrong.

* _groff mm_ *really does* use a paragraph indentation of "5", not just for
semi-blocked letters, but all letters, where first-line indentations are used
at all.

* The `Pi` register is dimensionless but always interpreted in units of ens. 
I misinterpreted the package's source code.

* This difference between DWB _mm_ and _groff mm_ could be documented, but
isn't as such.  If you know the DWB 3.3 manual really well, and read the
"Internals" section of _groff_mm_(7), you could figure it out.

We could be less coy, and that is all that I aim to do now with this ticket.
