Isn't it obvious? Two help items with the same help description doesn't tell you which one you need. And if you saved the output of a list... blah blah, then recalling help with \?, you won't be told necessarily how to run blah blah list, because the names of the lists and the help are different. If I saw somewhere on the web, the output of psql entitled "List of relations" which command would run that, given that a dozen or so commands are titled "List of relations", even though they are not that at all.

Slight differences can be explained by the fact that PostgreSQL is written by many people. Is there anything that is actually wrong or confusing? If yes, do you have a suggestion how to improve it?
