What I tried to say is:

- In the initial display show all values together, but replace the
long values with a link.

- This link should lead to a second display (in *Help*) where also all
values are shown together. Here the long values should of course be
shown. There should also be a short explanation what this display is
about (and a link back, but that is nearly automatic if the first
display is in *Help* too).

Would it make sense to display long values in the same way as evaluation
results in the *scratch* buffer? i.e. with text properties that allow
the user to toggle between the abbreviated value and the complete value.
