That is an extremely questionable "feature" of the commanline parser.

Indeed. but that's how getopt_long() works. From its man page:

  Long  option names may be abbreviated if the abbreviation is unique or
  is an exact match for some defined option.

I'm not sure how to turn this behaviour off. Also, it's not just us who suffers from it, e.g. 'git rebase --int'.
