The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/13/legalnotice.html
Description:

1) pgbench has always supported the PGDATABASE env variable, but it is not
listed along PGHOST/PGPORT & PGUSER in
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/13/pgbench.html#id-1.9.4.10.8.
PGDATABASE is listed in the pages of the psql/pg_dump/createdb...
utilities

2) In "Common options", it would be useful to add a warning that "-d means
--debug and does NOT define the database, contrary to most other PostgreSQL
utilities".
(It seems to work and the consequence is a flood of SQL orders on the
screen.)
