With all due respect, but if humans can figure out how new unseen programs work by using -h and seeing what options exist and what they do, I am sure robots can figure it out too, or else they weren’t that intelligent to begin with. | ||

The difference is that humans will remember the options listed by -h after a few times of using the tool. AIs don't. If they don't reach for the --help switch every time they'll attempt the statistical average, which may or may not work. For super-common or popular tools like `gh` the usage is already in the training data though. | ||
