The message I get from that suggestion is that the most sensible approach,
if we are going to add something from this discussion to "git diff", is to
do what you did _not_ quote from my message, which is:
As to --tree-vs-index counterproposal (was it a counterproposal?),
except for that I think they are too long to type in practice and need
to be shortened to be useful, I do not have a fundamental objection
against it.
IOW, this is about options, and should not be done as syntax sugar that
does a half-baked job of pretending to be refs.
