man mv punctuation deficiency

I see four sentences written as two:
$ man mv
       -f, --force
              do not prompt before overwriting equivalent to --reply=yes

       -i, --interactive
              prompt before overwrite equivalent to --reply=query

also, it appears to the user, that one must be the default behaviour,
so say so right there, else looks schizophrenic.
