Based on dotnet/diagnostics#5493 (comment) this seems like a reasonable way to go - but my expectation is that if someone did want to override this value, they'd have to
- ensure the default help option was not added to the tree
- create their own help option
- assign that help option a customized HelpAction using this new API
is that correct?
That is correct. It takes some effort to do it, but I expect it to be rare. |

Will something cause reevaluation on resizing the console host?

No. This value will be requested a moment before the help is going to be displayed. And in 99.9% of the cases that will be the last thing the program does before exit.
