Martin, I believe that Durk Talsma may have been the one who set up these options. He may still be the only one that understands how they work or are supposed to work.
FWIW, you can now do something like --timeofday=noon (or morning, or dusk, or dawn, etc.) which should do something similar to what you are trying to do with the --start-date-lat= option (which I never exactly understood.)
