I'd expect that to hold true only if the argument was not a flag
argument which required a parameter, then I'd expect it to puke.  This
would also help to quickly find instances where you'd undefined a
necessary variable in the source tree, instead of giving a cryptic
error message like:  ``usage: rm [-f | -i] [-dPRr] file ...''
