@mrmckeb What do you think?

Hi @jamesgeorge007, this looks interesting.

It is probably a bit much to add a dependency for a small change like this, especially when it doesn't break anything if a user passes 'unknown' options.

I think it's worth investigating if this can be handled with Commander, rather than by adding another dependency - https://www.npmjs.com/package/commander.

@mrmckeb What about these manual workarounds?

Hi @jamesgeorge007, I appreciate the effort, but I feel that there's little value to add additional validation, but there is risk to editing these flows - especially when we don't have thorough test coverage of all commands, expected orders, etc.

There's a chance that the validation will catch something it shouldn't, and I think that's a worse outcome than an ignored flag.
