Why each option
The openssl x509 command is specifically designed to manage and display X.509 certificate data, including its contents and details.
The openssl x509 command is a multi-purpose certificate utility that can parse, display, sign, and convert X.509 certificates. When used with options like -in certificate.pem -text -noout, it effectively inspects and prints all the information contained within a certificate.
There is no standard openssl show command for inspecting certificates.
There is no standard openssl info command for inspecting certificates.
The openssl req command is used for Certificate Signing Requests (CSRs), not for inspecting existing certificates.
