I very rarely read man pages (similarly gnu info) on Linux nowadays, whoever they're written for isn't me.

Superior alternatives:

* tldr/tealdeer - usually just a pile of typical usage examples, almost always covers what I want

* jfgi because surely someone has tried to do this before and asked about it on an ancient forum

* llms - regurgitating the info from above, possibly with the bonus of letting it try a script on a sandbox and then entering a error-confusion loop

* source - documentation can be wrong or incomplete, but the source never lies
