Thank you for the suggestion. I'd prefer to keep this patch focused; since
the verbose output of both commands is subject to change, listing every
individual field in the documentation would require frequent updates.

​I believe the current "Outputs" section is intentionally kept simple to
minimize maintenance overhead. While expanding it might be a worthwhile
follow-up, it probably deserves its own dedicated discussion.
