To be fair, neither "man ls" nor "ls --help" shows that information
(at least for the GNU Coreutils version of the "ls" command).
The full documentation is in the "info" document; the man page
contains only a subset of that information, but there's a reference
to the info manual *and* a web page at the bottom of the man page.
Try "info ls" if the coreutils documentation is installed.
