What does "better reading" mean here exactly?
See, there's a reason why -M suffix is not default in objdump. And in my experience, I've never looked at objdump output and thought, "hm, so the operand size insn mnemonic suffix is missing here". And if at all, one usually wants to know the operand size of a single instruction - not the whole bunch - and for that we tend to look at the vendor manuals directly...
So I don't think this brings any improvement to the output but hey, I could be missing a reason.
