I do not like it. It is not exactly correspond with the GNU coding

I emphasize _brief_ documentation.
65 lines is brief (especially when compared with the 1750 lines of the info
manual). Moreover, the output of --help should contain all the information
required in a man page for the programs that generate the man page from it:
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Man-Pages.html#Man-Pages
"Finally, the GNU help2man program (https://www.gnu.org/software/help2man/)
is one way to automate generation of a man page, in this case from --help
output. This is sufficient in many cases."
