> We could probably expect it to use the FTP standard "LIST -a" command
to show hidden files

"LIST -a" is not standard, it is nowhere mentioned in RFC 959 or any
other RFC relevant for FTP. In fact, there are many servers which
interpret "LIST -a" as "list the file or the contents of the directory
named "-a".

A server not showing all files with LIST relies on nonstandard behavior
and is essentially broken.
