That was Eli's point -- it doesn't work with C-h -- please try it.

  C-h
  ;; Shows first "C-h (Type ? for further options)-", then after a secondthe
  ;; which-key pop-up occurs.
  C-h
  ;; Now the C-h help help buffer will be shown.
  C-n
  ;; Now you're viewing the NEWS file.

I.e., you cannot paginate through the commands if you are issuing C-h
and have which-key-mode on.

You also can't invoke describe-prefix-bindings from C-h in vanilla emacs. The reason is the same. which-key is just intercepting the help-char to do the pagination.

   Pagination is done by hitting C-h C-n and C-h C-p, or C-h n and C-h p
   when the which-key popup is active.
