Wow. I didn't know this was not intended. I thought that red-black is
default as radix trees are only used in address_space of mapped files
(page cache), AFAIK. I usually do not need to specify the type as all
the major trees are red-black - being it cgroups, scheduler entities,
memory mappings, inodes, you name it.
Again, I didn't change anything with regards to this behavior.

I was thinking about wrapping the command to a second line but that's
what terminal will do anyways if narrower so I left it that way. The
rest of the pipe is just formatting/pretty printing the table.
Otherwise the output would be waaaay toooo loooong and not really
human readable. I do not think it can get any simpler than that. I can
get rid of one of the columns though, it does not need to contain both
the start and the end of the VMA range.
As an added value it also teaches eventual readers some advanced usage
techniques in general so I believe it can be useful. There is enough
simple examples already. Would you rather prefer something like this?

This is not as readable in my opinion. And also it does not show why
would one care about the order in the first place. See?
I do not believe a hard limit of 80 columns is useful for any serious
kernel debugging. For developing and maintaining a source code, yes.
For dumping a lot of debugging data in a human readable form, no.
For example if I type 'timer -r' I already get an output which is over
eighty. How would you copy/paste this to help? Or how do you feel
about the output itself?

That's about the same width as my example.
What do you suggest?

Nah. I missed that one. Will fix it. Or you can just amend it yourself.
