I agree, discoverability has always been a paint point of command line interfaces, and I'm not sure what the best solution is. The most annoying thing for me is having to switch back and forth between some documentation of the commands I'm trying to use and the terminal.

Also I hate how clunky the interfaces feel when you're trying to view something which happened prior. It might be there, might not, some command you ran might have cleared the terminal at some point, some overwrite over themselves to do things like progress bars, and god forbid if you resize the terminal at some point because this will reflow everything that was written to it earlier into garbage.
