What does it mean not to recurse? Sounds like flat: false asks for a
subset of the full set. How exactly is the subset defined?
Bike-shedding:
Would it be easier to explain as:
@recurse: If true, include child information in each node (note that
this can result in redundant output). Default is true (since 5.0)
and then pass false when you don't want recursion, with it being more
obvious that using the new flag results in more compact output with no
loss of information.
