hs.screen.getInfo() always returns nil?

I've never seen hs.screen.getInfo() return anything but nil, e.g.

> hs.fnutils.each(hs.screen.allScreens(), function(s) hs.printf(hs.inspect(s:getInfo())) end)

FWIW, it does work for me with an external Dell display on a Mac mini x86:

hs.fnutils.each(hs.screen.allScreens(), function(s) hs.printf(hs.inspect(s:getInfo())) end)

Thanks @QuantumLibet, I'll dig a little further.
