I understand, but put yourself in the position of someone who needs to
review a patch, and sees something like this:

+Display the status of skips.\n"
+EDDI_USAGE_DOC_STRING_WITH_ALL ("skip", "info skip", "displayed")));

How does that someone know if the resulting text is good English and
will produce a clear help text, or needs to be fixed in some way?
