One Obvious Way.

In this case, the ambiguity of the "version=" argument is sufficient to
elevate it to the level of "attractive nuisance" (particularly given the
legacy behaviour of conflicting with typical verbosity options). The
default help for the action needs to be fixed, and there are a couple of
documentation tweaks to be made, but Steven's decision to remove the
feature has a sound rationale.

Cheers,
Nick.
