This is probably true for programs like cd and maybe some others that only
take one argument. But try running those programs from the explorer with
more than one file dropped on the program or by selecting multiple files and
the using "open with ..." -- a lot of those programs then complain that
"there is no such file 'fileA fileB fileC'"

In other words, programs that can use more than one command line parameter
can't easily guess which of those multiple parameters give a filename.
