Skimmable perhaps, man pages exist even if people don't like to read them.

- stavros 3y agoIs your argument that a man page is more discoverable than a UI?
- anotherhue 3y agoI have had that experience, yes. Contrast poking around with PuTTY vs man ssh. Man pages have prose, examples, 'see also' notes. They surely could put some cheat sheets at the beginning but that doesn't excuse a resistance to reading them.
