bastian at box:~$ for F in ifconfig route arp netstat; do man $F; done | wc -c
35308
bastian at box:~$ for F in ip-address ip-route ip-neighbour ip-link; do man $F; done | wc -c
35337

but really, i dont see the point to argue about lines or bytes, when ip
can do a lot more and please consider, that all 'ip'-commands share the same
syntax so if you know one, you can also work with another (not possible
with net-tools).
