Additional Info:
In general, I come across many words that are not present in the dictionary. Also, this suite does not appear to use any local or online service to "understand" what is written and suggest the correct wording etc. I suppose many would appreciate extended language services as offered by G-suite (google) and Grammarly... maybe in verson 7?

The word "scalability" is in LO 6.4's US English dictionary (but not in 6.3's). Please check and make sure you aren't using the hunspell packages provided by your distro.

In addition, the US English dictionary aren't maintained in LibreOffice, it is using the one maintained by Kevin Atkinson: http://wordlist.aspell.net/
