The word "statics" was recently added to codespell's "rare" commonly mispelled words directory. By default, this
dictionary is used in addition to the more conservative "clear" dictionary, resulting in a spurious failure of the
"Spell Check" CI workflow.
Although this could be fixed by adding the word to the ignore list, it seems that an increasing number of common words
being added to this dictionary, so I think it's best to just remove it altogether. The goal for the "Spell Check"
workflow is to catch some typos without a significant number of false positives, even if that means some misspellings
slip through. I think the "clear" dictionary is more in line with that goal.

On every push, pull request, and periodically, use the codespell-project/actions-codespell action to check for commonly
misspelled words.
In the event of a false positive, the problematic word should be added, in all lowercase, to the ignore-words-list field
of ./.codespellrc. Regardless of the case of the word in the false positive, it must be in all lowercase in the ignore
list. The ignore list is comma-separated with no spaces.
