Yeah this annoys me even though I'm a daily user of both fd and rg. What makes it more confusing is that many of the flags DO align - or partially align.
For example, I'm used to glob patterns but the glob flag (-g) works differently in fd and rg. I think that fd's -g flag does not use "full-path" globbing while rg's -g does (or the other way around). To get fd to use rg style globs, it also needs the -p flag, which rg also recognizes but it has a completely different meaning for rg and has nothing to do with how globbing/filename matching works.
I guess I'm used to the warts at this stage, like I had gotten used to the warts on find and grep all those years ago.
Difficult or impossible to fix these inconsistencies at this stage without breaking backward compatibility.
