With C-u T s (gnus-topic-show-topic)

The docstring for that function is a bit misleading IMO

,----[ C-h f gnus-topic-show-topic RET ]
| `gnus-topic-show-topic' is an interactive compiled Lisp function
|   -- loaded from "gnus-topic"
| (gnus-topic-show-topic &optional PERMANENT)
| 
| Documentation:
| Show the hidden topic.
| If PERMANENT, make it stay shown in subsequent sessions as well.
`----

because PERMANENT means also to show topics which have been hidden with
the permanent flag.  Should we improve it?

Increasingly, people seem to misinterpret complexity as
sophistication, which is baffling -- the incomprehensible should cause
suspicion rather than admiration. Possibly this trend results from a
mistaken belief that using a somewhat mysterious device confers an
aura of power on the user.                          -- Niklaus Wirth
