I did a naive mockup showing two options with OR relationship.

GUI is already different from the command line, see for example the
guisection, that are not present in --help or manual.

Of course we can add these information on the description, but often
we have more than one parameter that depend from the same formula and
I think that introduce something like the mockup could improve
usability.
