My use case is troubleshooting tool - I can always ask somebody on the remote computer to check their binaries with a tool that is in the base system. ("Can you objdump -T this library?", "Can you objdump -R something | grep symbolname?"). I think the first use case can be solved with "nm -D", I don't see the replacement for the latter. Since I also support Mac, Linux users it nice to have one tool that works the same across all the platforms; but give I need to take "otool" for older MacOS into account I don't mind to have something else under a different name, with different options, as long as it is well known and preferably always available for troubleshooting (not an additionally installed something).
