FWIW I'd tend to agree with you.


[colin@jimmy Channel (master)]$ sudo systemctl stop --fodslkjsf httpd

systemctl: unrecognized option '--fodslkjsf'

[colin@jimmy Channel (master)]$ sudo systemctl stop --now httpd

[colin@jimmy Channel (master)]$


If --now is irrelevant to the verb, then it should be the equiv of an
unrecognized option.

Bonus points if it issued a git-style "did you mean systemctl disable
--now ..." error response.
