now believe that error messages should always be Dv.

ziaee added a comment to D48329: ls -h: humanize the total as well.

Maybe helpful additional context:
Netbsd manpage says "Modifies the -l and -s options, causing the sizes to be reported in bytes displayed in a human readable format.".
Illumos manpage says "All sizes are scaled to a human readable format, for example, 14K, 234M, 2.7G, or 3.0T. Scaling is done by repetitively dividing by 1024. The last --si or -h option determines the divisor used."

Maybe "Show the file size in bytes with the following unit suffixes"?

I'm so excited to test this driver this weekend! Thank you so much for submitting this! All of the suggestions I made are to bring it into alignment with the rest of the freebsd manual and are specified in the manual page style guide, style.mdoc(5). Sorry I'm so late.

I do not like long options. We have a different culture and tradition that has a steep learning curve, but has led to the last living usable, daily driveable CLI. Long options are great for scripts but ruin the usability of CLI as a UX. This is just a comment and not a request for changes or nack. Cc'ing community leaders for review, and manpages since this is a manpage change.

Hi, is jrm's suggestion acceptable to everyone? I feel this would be really helpful without going too far.

ziaee requested changes to D48329: ls -h: humanize the total as well.

Hi! This is a really interesting proposal! I always wished it did this, but also thought there was almost certainly some excellent reason why it hasn't. Since this is the foundation of userspace generations of scripts are built from, and thy Holy POLA of FreeBSD, I'm going to CC community leaders and grandmasters. Please forgive the disruption if this is undesirable. Thanks!

OG triple OG grandmaster jhb,
Please excuse my changing reviewers on your review.
People that subscribe to manpages are so excited to see draft manpages, and you're a a legend so i think it would excite at least most of them to see you have posted a draft manpage in their mboxen.
