So the man page currently says "fail if doas would prompt for password." although it would be more accurate to say "fail if does may prompt for a password". The purpose of -n is to make sure a script will run with or without persist, instead of being unpredictable. Also, the way persist is tied to a process group means it's not great for scripting anyway.
