Description

We have at least one linter that handles "worse" vs "worst" but this was not flagged:

> But it's **even worst** because when you look at it, the kernel also needs to manually save a bunch of information whenever there's interrupts, right?

Research direction

Start by locating the linter rule that handles “worse” versus “worst,” then reproduce it with the quoted sentence containing “even worst.” The work is done when that usage is flagged consistently without breaking the existing comparison cases; no specific file or test is named in the issue.
