"Error correction" in title
Is there a good reason to include "error correction" in the title here? The current Applications section focuses on error correction, and those are probably the most notable applications, but there are some applications outside of correction, like key recovery, constructing MDS matrices, and some zero-knowledge argument protocols.
The article's scope already seems broader than error correction (e.g. it can correct up to t erasures
); should we move it to "Reed-Solomon code" to reflect this broader scope? That would seem more WP:CONCISE and WP:CONSISTENT with Reed–Muller code, Algebraic geometry code, Expander code, etc. (which are also error-correcting codes). — xDanielx T/C\R 05:03, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
