buildInfo is important and useful feature to help users know which mongosh variant is being run or installed. There are many mongosh variants, and it's easy to install a non-intended mongosh. A mongosh may run, but that's not enough to know if the proper one was installed. buildInfo feature helps to identify itself.
"--buildInfo option" command-line option and "buildInfo()" command are missing from Help function.
