Description

In #9338 it was called out that the help text was unclear about when the CLI would exit with code 4. Previously it indicated that any authentication issue would result in 4, which could include scope issues, permission issues, etc. This was not the original intention.

It's possible we will revisit our exit codes in the future but for the moment I just wanted to clarify that 4 is used when the CLI needs to be authenticated at all i.e. there is no token available.
