      Different platforms use different versions of aspell and different dictionaries, and we've hit a case where newer versions of aspell consider program names - such as "MongoDB" - to be valid while older versions don't.

      This leads to an issue when we call `s_string -r` to rebuild the list of whitelisted names, as newer versions of aspell don't consider "MongoDB" a typo and therefore removes it from the whitelist. Subsequently running older versions of aspell will report the no longer whitelisted "MongoDB" as an error.

       

      s_string needs to be updated such that these names are no longer removed from the whitelist.
