I rarely wade through it and just search for what I'm looking for. Typing '-i' (in the session, not as a param) will make the search case insensitive if using 'less'.

That's great, but that's not discoverability, that's searching for something you know/hope/suspect is already there.

Discoverability is about having what you can do be presented to you in the first place. It's the very opposite of looking things up. The information comes to you in a contextual way, instead of you having to go searching for it.

So the solution is to use another separate CLI utility that you have to read the manual for, and memorize '-i' as an option for it?

I wouldn't consider less a pure CLI utility, since it puts the terminal more into a screen mode.
