In my opinion, giving partial information in the man page is the worst
case scenario.  Seeing as it already includes a good number of the
available commands, there is significant potential for users to assume
that the list is comprehensive.  If the owners want to rely explicitly
on info pages, they should strip the command list out of the man page
entirely and simply leave a note saying "see the info page."  Until
then, I think leaving holes in the man page is a disservice to users.
