I think "means using" reads better than "will take the value from", but
am happy to hear other wordings proposals too
(probably should be uniformized throughout the library...).

Slightly OT, but this reminds me that I'm always bothered by the documentation not stating the default value (meaning you have to click on the link to the rcparams and search for the value in the long list of (lexographically unsorted) values for the one you're interested in). This just brought me to the idea of #15115.
