I prefer a well-written man page to any other information. Git (and a few others) do open the man page when invoking `--help`. That's a way to avoid some overhead.

I hate when programs do that. When I type "foo --help", I want concise help message for foo. If wanted foo man page, I would have typed "man foo".

man pages can include concise usage examples as well.
