about_Run_With_PowerShell page says the script will be run with pwsh.exe, but it really uses powershell.exe

Feedback

The about_Run_With_PowerShell page says the following:

The Run with PowerShell feature starts a Windows PowerShell session that has an execution policy of Bypass, runs the script, and closes the session.
It runs a command that has the following format:
    pwsh.exe -File <FileName> -ExecutionPolicy Bypass

The first page of this is correct: it does start a Windows PowerShell session. But the example command is not correct: it doesn't run pwsh.exe, it runs powershell.exe instead. (I wish it was possible to change the behavior to run pwsh instead, but I don't think this is possible.)
