For what people do you want to show this expression? It would be hard
for ordinary users to understand this expression. I think at least the
following explanation is necessary; and more detailed information is
verbose.

  If --splitblock N is specified, difference of each splitted dumpfile
  size is at most N kilo bytes.

Just the same as the above comment.
