We don't maintain that web page.  You'll have to file your bug report to
the owner of that site.

Meanwhile, you may want to start using man7.org, as a more up-to-date
version of the Linux man pages.

But you are absolutely right that our own '[ --help' (which is the
source for the Coreutils' man page, which in turn feeds those two web
sites) probably should be more vocal that -a and -o should be avoided.
