 Only cruise the specified depth, counting from the specified root-module(s). This
 command was mostly useful in combination with visualisation output like _dot_ to
 keep the generated output to a manageable size.
 
-You probably don't want to use these as today better options exist that serve the
-same goal and give better looking and more accurate results. E.g.:
-
-- use the [`--collapse`](#--collapse-summarize-to-folder-depth-or-pattern) option
-- use a [collapsePattern](./options-reference#summarising-collapsepattern-dot-and-archi-reporters)
-  in conjunction with your dot reporter to hide details you don't want to see
-  right now
-- use filters like --include-only and --focus to only show a relevant part of your graph
-- use the `archi` reporter that produces a high level dependency-graph based on
-  heuristics.

 ```sh
 dependency-cruise --max-depth 2 -T dot src/main/index.ts | dot -T svg > depth-limited-dependency-graph.svg
