Man, if I had a nickel every time some old Linux utility ignored a command-line flag I'd have a lot of nickels. I'd have even more nickels if I got one each time some utility parsed command-line flags wrong.
I have automated a lot of things executing other utilities as a subprocess and it's absolutely crazy how many utilities handle CLI flags just seemingly correct, but not really.
