mysterytool --help

   ‘--help’ unrecognized option, -h for help

I will burn this motherfucker to the ground

Or the opposite:

mysterytool -h

     -h unrecognized option, --help for help

Both need to burn.

Some of the older programs and scripts I've seen in the codebases I help maintain have -u or -?. If I have an excuse to do any changes to them I'll usually change them to use -h and --help.
