do we want to mention that the pattern is usually that you start iterating on a stream with +
and then switch to $
on the next call?

I don't know if this is the common use-case, maybe sometimes users just need to peep at the last element and don't continue from there. But I can add a mention if you think it's required.

One nice use case is the mentioned peek fro last value in multiple streams. In this case is perfect one time shoot with: XREAD STREAM streamA streamB streamC streamD + + + +
But for reliable reading of the content of streams, when I need to start from the last available value (which is my case), after the initial "XREAD STREAM streamA streamB streamC streamD + + + +" it is convenient to continue with the obtained IDs from the streams in the style: "XREAD STREAM streamA streamB streamC streamD idA idB idC idD". If the initial reading shows that one of the streams is empty, I will use 0 as the id for subsequent readings.
