| 151 ↗ | (On Diff #22657) | I am wondering, is it OK to start a line with a comma? Perhaps this comma is also reduntant. |

| 151 ↗ | (On Diff #22657) | Generally the comma would go on the previous line, with a space between "bad" and the comma. I forget whether the version as-committed will end up rendering with a space before the comma. You're also right that this particular comma is not strictly needed. |

| 151 ↗ | (On Diff #22657) | When spoken, it doesn't quite sound right without the pause represented by the comma. To render correctly, the comma needs to be on the same line as the .Fl macro: .Fl bad , The space before the comma there is a delimiter to the macro. It renders the "bad" as the flag, then adds the comma without a space: bad, It's hard to think of any time a line beginning with a comma with be rendered correctly. |
