          Do developers get hard-ons for using nonstandard flags?

          Use -h, --help. None of this “no hyphen” bullshit or using the plus sign or a different flag like --info

        -H is for “hell no just uninstall”

        Look, if they can’t stick to established convention and they’re not gnu (and thus magically excusably arrogant as fuck because #stallman), then you just know they’ll be somehow dragging in remote libraries or something equally as fuckwitted; so just remove it and live your life.
