Yes. Also for people who insist that you use —-help but won’t accept -h.

  Probably a typo but requiring `—-help` with em dash would be another level of evil.

  The worst offenders are the ones who even put the logic in to let one know that they knew exactly what one meant, but instead of accepting it they purposely throw an error, and adding insult to injury, telling one what one should have provided. Those people are psychopathic abusers, and for some bizarre reason seem to be drawn to computers. I haven't figured out why yet.

    Like “exit” in the Python repl, Which,knowing perfectly well what you wanted to do, will bark back “use exit()”. And only now, decades later it’s actually being fixed, but you still have evil bastards complaining that it should not do what you expect.

    Yes. git push does this.
