[bug]: lncli setmccfg --help options differ from the sample lnd.conf

[Bitcoinite]

Background

Running lncli setmccfg --help gives the following explanations for the command options:

OPTIONS:
--pmtnr value the number of payments mission control should store (default: 0)
--failrelax value the amount of time to wait after a failure before raising failure amount (default: 0s)
--estimator value the probability estimator to use, choose between 'apriori' or 'bimodal' (bimodal is experimental)
--apriorihalflife value the amount of time taken to restore a node or channel to 50% probability of success. (default: 0s)
--apriorihopprob value the probability of success assigned to hops that we have no information about (default: 0)
--aprioriweight value the degree to which mission control should rely on historical results, expressed as value in [0, 1] (default: 0)
--aprioricapacityfraction value the fraction of channels' capacities that is considered liquid in pathfinding, a value between [0.75-1.0]. a value of 1.0 disables this feature. (default: 0)
--bimodaldecaytime value the time span after which we phase out learnings from previous payment attempts (default: 0s)
--bimodalscale value controls the assumed channel liquidity imbalance in the network, measured in msat. a low value (compared to typical channel capacity) anticipates unbalanced channels. (default: 0)
--bimodalweight value controls the degree to which the probability estimator takes into account other channels of a router (default: 0)

These explations, and especially the given defaults, differ from what is written in the sample lnd.conf:
https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/master/sample-lnd.conf

Also this doesn't make any sense:
--aprioricapacityfraction value the fraction of channels' capacities that is considered liquid in pathfinding, a value between [0.75-1.0]. a value of 1.0 disables this feature. (default: 0)

How can the default be 0, when the value has to be between [0.75-1.0]?

Your environment

lnd v0.16.0-beta

Steps to reproduce

Compare the results from lncli setmccfg --help with what is written in the sample lnd.conf

Expected behaviour

Both should state the same default values.

Actual behaviour

The information given differs.

[bitromortac]

Yes, this is misleading. If you only use lncli setmccfg --estimator=bimodal, the default values as in sample-lnd.conf are used. Perhaps we could set values in the cli flags to default values in order to have a better documentation.

[guggero]

Unfortunately the "default" values in the CLI are notoriously hard to understand. 0 just means "the user did not enter a value" and often means you don't want to change that specific options in the backend by not specifying any flag in the CLI.
See #1523 and #6778 for more context.
