Hmmm, I disagree. What it basically displays is usage. So the term "usage" is 
just about right.

And it isn´t an option either.

Additionally I never ever used the option "--usage". I didn´t even know it 
existed.

But if you have a different equally short sugestion, I am all ears.

Anyway, I´d personally wouldn´t block the patch going in due to this.

Thanks,
