Yes. We shouldn't say it can't do lax-whitespace, cause the reality is that
it can't NOT do lax-whitespace.

We can either say nothing, or say something like:
The word search commands don't perform character folding and are not
affected by lax whitespace matching (since they ignore the spaces between
words anyway, @pxref{Lax Search}).
