Not to argue against your point, but note that (1) --quiet is already a
flag which means something else and (2) --slave is not only a command
line option, but also a structure field name. You can find it in
src/include/R_ext/RStartup.h, not far away from typedef enum { ...
SA_SUICIDE } SA_TYPE. There is also a public API endpoint R_Suicide in
src/include/Rinterface.h.
One could think that R sources should come with trigger warnings or
something.
