For the 44 line of the man page starting at

               size
                   For numeric conversions, you can specify the size to 
interpret the number as using "l", "h", "V",
                   "q", "L", or "ll"...

not one example is given that you are talking about %lu, %hd, %lld etc.
One needs to dig and dig to find out that you are (hopefully) talking
about these and not something else (like 0b111, 0x222). So please add
some examples.

And, at

                      q, L or ll  interpret integer as C type "long long", 
"unsigned long long".
                                  or "quads" (typically 64-bit integers)
don't you mean
                      ll, L or q  interpret integer as C type "long long", 
"unsigned long long".
                                  or "quads" (typically 64-bit integers)
or maybe
                      L, ll or q  interpret integer as C type "long long", 
"unsigned long long".
                                  or "quads" (typically 64-bit integers)

One can guess the q at least, but why misplace it?
