It was decided not to put too much detail into the man pages. Each database type supports something different. If we are going to explain every single parameter for every single database type we support, we'll end up with excessively long man pages. Users should know which options make sense for the databases that they use.
I tested the sqlimport for oracle and this works as designed. See attached screenshots
For future: In our online man pages (wiki book), we could create a table to reflect which commands are relevant for which databases and have the FS man pages simply reference the link to the appropriate wiki page.
I will talk to Jonathan to improve the wikidocs for sqlimport
