I'm piping in without reading the sources, but sometimes a quick -h is
more informative than a confusing man page. Sometimes I just need a
reminder as to which flags to use (lsof and tcpdump come to mind). OK,
so those aren't NetBSD utilities, but you get the idea.

I think newfs and disklabel or something were that way, too. I used the
-h a lot this past week.
