To be clear, I only asked whether you really needed to add support for
embedded newlines in free-form usage strings following a "" line; I
didn't actually suggest dropping support for free-form text following
a "" line. Perhaps I didn't articulate that well enough, though, in my
review(?).

Aside: I did, however, _think_ about suggesting that free-form text
support be dropped since I only found one consumer of the feature,
however, I decided not to make that suggestion since the feature
seemed like it had potential value and the current implementation is
good enough and simple enough (though undocumented, as far as I can
tell).
