IMO, this is a step in the wrong direction. It is not at all clear 
that "--porcelain" means "output _for_ porcelain"; it is much more likely to 
be understood as "output _is_ the porcelain". Your new text even supports 
this latter understanding. The original description "machine-readable output" 
is unambiguous and cannot be misunderstood.
