This is incorrect. Pardon me for misleading you.
Option '--config' compulsorily requires an argument.

Yes, you are right! Currently, this is the only sane way to ignore
.wgetrc. Though --config= and --config="" works too but as Linda
pointed out, wget screams about not being able to read the file and
*then* ignores .wgetrc.

Yes. Because that's not the case.
