I think you are right. On the other hand it’s the fact that a lot of tutorials / getting started guides etc include some ssl invocations to execute a specific command for key/cert creation. And a user wishing to adjust and maybe understand things gets thrown at a man page that is so overloaded. Similar to git. But git’s cli at least has a clear setup with optional vs mandatory values. I always disliked commandline interfaces with mandatory option fields.
