Improve behavior of kubectl options

Synopsis states: Print the list of flags inherited by all commands

This synopsis is very vague and if you are intending to display all the flag options for all the kubectl commands inside of one terminal window, you are going to have to constantly scroll through the terminal to look for what you were looking for.
I recommend options being converted into an Argument for each individual command for example. kubectl get options and it will list all the flag options for the get command.

Thanks,

If we look at the commands output, most of the options will be repeated (Not all). How do you propose this change ? If you clarify with example. It might make the proposition more legit.

@Ritikaa96 For this issue my thoughts were that I use Linux through a virtual machine which has limited computer screen space and a limited sized terminal box the options would need to be an argument to describe the options for each individual command instead of a command displaying all options for all commands. Hope this clarifies, still have not had the opportunity to use the Kubectl options command at work to verify.

Just ran the options command it is okay but still can be improved to an argument because if an individual runs multiple kubectl commands the options tab would be scrolled all the way to the top of the terminal. Then the individual would not remember all of the command options available without having to scroll. Example kubectl create options, kubectl run options and then it would display directly below the command just entered in the terminal and the user would not have to scroll very hard to see the options and then re-run the command.
