When migrating the
abccommand, it became apparent that the help rendering can quickly become annoying. It's better for us to just rely on the urfave/cli defaults.Yes, there will be some visible inconsistency in help outputs now but in the long run I think it helps, since it requires less cognitive load to review + migrate a command.
