why this rewriterule doesn't work:

I think you may be caught by RewriteRule not matching
against query strings. Per the docs:
What is matched?
...
* If you wish to match against the hostname, port,
or query string, use a RewriteCond with the
%{HTTP_HOST}, %{SERVER_PORT}, or %{QUERY_STRING}
variables respectively.

I believe you want to use something like:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^option=login$
RewriteRule ^/index.php?$ /register [R=301,L]
It's been a while since I've done this, so I'm not sure
whether the "?" after index.php is matched. You may need to
adjust that pattern.
I would expect to not want the "?" in the RewriteRule; it should be
stripped by the process which breaking things into the path and the
query_string. Untested opinion, it has been a while for me too.
And in principle you want to escape the ".": "\."
