Yes that's the key point.  In our case we don't care if the URL
disappears without a trace.  That's the graceful degradation mode we
want, as showing the URL will make things unreadable.

Okay.  That's an unusual but defensible use case.  In your case, the URL
is "gravy".

We'd definitely use .UR if the defaults were as they are now, so we'll
probably change to them in future.

Understood.

Can you clarify the relationship between coreutils's help2man and the
one at <https://www.gnu.org/software/help2man/>?
We try to keep them in sync,
but I haven't had a response to patches recently.
It's on my list of things to do to resync.

cheers,
