If we want to stay more accurate.

We'll also need to add fwget(8) as in rtw88(4) but I'll open a separate review for this.
I need to update the man page from the script the next days hopefully anyway.

share/man/man4/iwlwifi.4

the compatibility code currently only supports 802.11a/b/g/n/ac modes (802.11n/ac only for the 22000 and later chipsets).

This revision now requires changes to proceed.Mon, Apr 21, 6:00 PM

Do you think it's okay to use the style I used for firmware in the latest draft of iwx.4? I think the predictability of following the mdoc standard sections is a major strength of this type of documentation, and I think it's reasonable to put the snippet about firmware and fwget in FILES, so that really helps with the structure of the page.
