makeinfo man page: note --no-* toggles off

(info "(texinfo) Invoking texi2any") says
'--no-number-footnotes'
'--number-footnotes'
     Suppress automatic footnote numbering.  By default, footnotes are
     numbered sequentially within a node, i.e., the current footnote
     number is reset to 1 at the start of each node.
Yes, even I know that
'--no-number-footnotes'
'--number-footnotes'
don't do the same thing. But reading it literally, the two appear to be
aliases for each other. So please say the second does the opposite, etc.

There are other cases too on the page. Or at the top of the list say --no-* 
does the
opposite below.

P.S., "reset to 1": actually reset to "*", at least with --plaintext.

$ makeinfo --version
texi2any (GNU texinfo) 6.8
