Please use semantic newlines. See man-pages(7):
Use semantic newlines
In the source of a manual page, new sentences should be started
on new lines, long sentences should be split into lines at
clause breaks (commas, semicolons, colons, and so on), and long
clauses should be split at phrase boundaries. This convention,
sometimes known as "semantic newlines", makes it easier to see
the effect of patches, which often operate at the level of in‐
dividual sentences, clauses, or phrases.
Thanks,
Alex
