Because -R is a regex, which will match to other tests with "tex2lyx" in the name as well. IMHO it is important to be precise in the documentation here. Of course you do not need to change your habits, but this documentation is for newcomers who want to learn how to run specific tests. They should not be surprised by additional tests popping up IMHO.
