Now time it, smartass Now imagine you're 2 subcommands deep, smartass Yes I know how readline works

  Typing M-b to go back by one word to insert a new argument is of course going to be slower. It is going to be even slower when we are two sub-commands deep. The M-b keybinding is merely a workaround, not a fix. I believe the snarky remark was unwarranted. I didn't mean to doubt your knowledge of readline. Like I said, I do agree with the larger point you made in your comment. I too find the non-standard help trends inconvenient. My comment was meant for sharing a workaround that helps me to alleviate some of the inconvenience caused by these problematic trends.
