Distrobox man pages specify commands using the following layout:
distrobox create
--image/-i: image to use for the container default: ${container_image_default}
--name/-n: name for the distrobox default: ${container_name_default}
--hostname: hostname for the distrobox default: <container-name>.$(uname -n)
--pull/-p: pull the image even if it exists locally (implies --yes)
--yes/-Y: non-interactive, pull images without asking
This is fine for a human, but it causes fish shell to have buggy completions:
❯ distrobox-create --absolutely-disable-root-password-i-am-really-positively-sure
--absolutely-disable-root-password-i-am-really-positively-sure (COMPATIBILITY for a list of compatible images and container managers, please …)

As you can see, the completion are in the format --longcommand/-shortcommand and if you complete your prompt using TAB then the completion will not work. You have to manually go and delete the last part
Describe the solution you'd like
I'd like the distrobox man page to list commands in the man page in the classic format, or at least I'd like for it to provide correct fish shell completions which is all I really care about.
