Cheat sheets are man pages and the -help option on most commands

Those exist already

They are mostly way too big. Try to get an easy curl command from the man page

I get that, but any extensive cheat sheet would just wrap around to being an inefficient man page

-help is the quick sheet, man is the extensive guide

Cheatsheets are community maintained examples of common usage. Manpages are way too complex, help is not always available or useful but good
