Apart from the obvious troll, I believe there is a point. >From time to time, I go to other projects and try to figure out how far we are from compatibility...
Not documenting compat options means that somebody outside the project would have to guess at stuff, instead of just reading the manpage and figuring out "hey, I can just use --version here just like elsewhere". Just because we find long options to be disgusting (tm) doesn't mean we shouldn't try to document what's here to stay. Face it, as much as we would like OpenBSD to stay pure, some compat stuff is there to stay. Let's try not to be more prickly to the outside world than we need, as much as we have a reputation to uphold, shall we ?
