`d` command simply auto download instead of showing formats as `help download` describes #1275

help basics says that d downloads the video/audio but help download explains that d <number> shows the list of formats the user can select to download. In the screenshot in README there is a view where downloads lists the available formats to download.

Issue / Suggestion

  1. fix it such that d does not overload the options and maintains the behavior where d <number> lists available formats to download OR

  2. allow the user to pass in yt-dlp flags like -F or --list-formats and select the corresponding format to download

Your Environment

Running 2.10.5 or latest github release on Win 11. search term used: /thomas I'm gonna chug and trying to list formats for the first option
