If it wasn't for this thread, I would never have known it could be pronounced as flaksid. I've always heard it as flasid. If it was said as flaksid, I would have wonder what the heck is being said. That would bring me out of the book. Even though I now know flaksid can be correct, that would still spoil the book.

So when we see flaccid, do not use a k.
