I am not a QEMU command line expert, so my mental model of this may be wrong, but: This seems to have a very broad scope on the command line and I am wondering if it's possible to associate it with a TDX command line object specifically to narrow its scope. I.e., is it possible to express this on the command line when launching something that is _not_ meant to be powered by TDX, such as an SEV guest? If it doesn't make sense to express that command line argument in a situation like that, perhaps it could be constrained only to the TDX-specific commandline objects.
