Well, it is because ’parse-command-line’ from (guix scripts), no?

This would address a part of “guix package” but not “guix build” or
“guix shell” or etc.

and so all guix/scripts/<command>.scm would be consistent.
BTW, it is somehow what “guix show” does with,
(define opts
(parse-command-line args %options (list (list))
#:build-options? #f
#:argument-handler handle-argument))
[...]
(guix-package* (reverse opts)))
Assuming we would like to parse left-to-right. :-)
