Comment:

 Hi wagon. Nyx (and by extension Stem's) '/help GETINFO' listing
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/stem.git/tree/stem/interpreter/help.py#n78
 comes from tor itself] through its 'GETINFO info/names' command. This
 means that the help output will list all GETINFO commands tor itself
 advertises (including new features in the future). When your tor instance
 no longer supports that command it will cease to be listed.
