Thanks for the link. I see that -A/-B/-C aren't included in AIX, but the good
news is that there's no *conflict* either. Adding support for -A/-B/-C is fairly
easy.

I believe -A/-B/-C are important. They're WIDELY implemented (at least 8 systems
support it). What's more, I think AI Code Assistants are becoming hugely
important, and being able to "show context" is really important to them. Reading
tokens consumes resources, and they have maximum context windows. -A/-B/-C are
easy ways to provide them a larger view without overwhelming them. Since they
work across different systems, it's valuable to have a *standard* way for these
computer systems to request context.
