Because very few conventional Unix programs act this way:

$  -z
ls: invalid option -- z
Try `ls --help' for more information.
$ tar -a
tar: invalid option -- a
Try `tar --help' for more information.
$ cp -z
cp: invalid option -- z
Try `cp --help' for more information.

Note the pattern.  (Hmmm: perhaps Optik should throw in a
"try --help" if there's a help option in the current parser.)
