On Linux, the man pages display their full content by default. I believe PowerShell should do the same. The number of times I use get-help (or the alias man) without the -Full parameter can be counted on 1 hand (actually probably 0 hands). I've always disliked the switch that was made to seriously abbreviate PowerShell help topics. It was too dumbed down.
So here's a chance to do the right thing and make the default output the full output. I think that is what both Linux and macOS users would expect.
A "Did you look at the help for the examples on how to use that command",
B "Yes, I didn't see any."
A "Oh, didn't you use the -Full parameter on help?"
B "Huh? You mean the help command didn't show me all the help?"
A "Nope."
B "WTF?"
