Hmmm... I have never used FTS. A quick glance at the code
looks to me as though the SoundExMax facility was put in there
without understanding how it was meant to be used.

This is probably understandable to the extent that I believe
Jason preferred the metaphone algorithm, so probably never
really studied what it was I had done with soundex. I had
already done my app using soundex so never really looked at
whether the metaphone stuff was better or worse.
