If a subject is addressed, and an aspect of that subject is not included, that aspect can be said to be "ignored".
No, this is incorrect. It could be any of these:1. Forgotten 2. Overlooked 3. Ignored 4. MissedEric Stevens
I would address the point in only a slightly different way.It could be any one of these:1. Forgotten 2. Overlooked 3. Deliberately ignored. 4. Missed.In any case, If a subject is addressed, and an aspect of that subject is not included, that aspect can be said to be "ignored". As the list indicates, that does not require that the aspect has been deliberately ignored.Sandman
ignore verb refuse to take notice of or acknowledge; disregard intentionally
You can also find:
1. to fail or refuse to notice; disregard
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ignore
Synonyms include "overlook".
There is no implication of "refusal to take notice" in "fail". There's a clear choice of meaning to use in this definition by the "or".
Once again, it is a case of your inability to understand the idiomatic use of English. Using "ignore" to mean "overlook" or "didn't bring up" or "wasn't covered" is a common and idiomatic usage in English.
