top: expand on column highlight quirks in man document
Confession is supposed to be good for the sole, right? After a senior moment regarding the 'x' toggle quirks, and thinking top had somehow regressed, I concluded an additional explanatory note might well be appropriate. Those quirks were already documented under the 5d & 5e topics. But there was no such caution documented under the 'x' command explanation itself, found in topic 4c.
