+ *  - the `cello --help` described `Commands:` table — rendered from each entry's `summary`,
+ *  - per-command `cello <cmd> --help`,
+ *  - the recognized-flag set used to reject unknown flags before dispatch.
+ *
+ * Consequence: the help table, per-command help, and dispatch CANNOT DRIFT, and adding a command
