technically there are a couple of other compression options that are longopt only, such as --lzma (but i haven't added those here because i've yet to see them used). this probably made sense when it was added in 2019, and it wasn't clear how popular, zstd was going to become. (especially in comparison to the other options we don't have.) though tbh, zstd seems more popular in non-tar contexts ... i had to ask the internet what the long and short extensions were! Rob >
