When running `mongoexport --help`, I've noticed some of the options are not consistent.
{{uri options:
      --uri=mongodb-uri                           mongodb uri connection string}}
Website documents shows that no "=" is needed with the `--uri` option. See https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/program/mongoexport/#cmdoption-mongoexport-uri
{{output options:
  -f, --fields=<field>[,<field>]*                 comma separated list of field names (required for exporting CSV) e.g. -f "name,age"
      --fieldFile=<filename>                      file with field names - 1 per line
      --type=<type>                               the output format, either json or csv (defaults to 'json') (default: json)}}
The `--type` option has both "(defaults to 'json')" and "(default: json)".
{{querying options:
  -q, --query=<json>                              query filter, as a JSON string, e.g., '{x:{$gt:1}}'
      --queryFile=<filename>                      path to a file containing a query filter (JSON)
  -k, --slaveOk                                   allow secondary reads if available (default true) (default: false)}}
The `-k` option shows that the default is both true and false.
