First of all I love your documentation effort.
Secondly I personally *hate* how the 'ip' does it's short options
parsing and especially order/precedence ambiguity. Phil Sutter
(Fedora/RHEL iproute2 maintainer) have a funny quiz illustrating the
ambiguity issues.
Quiz: https://youtu.be/cymH9pcFGa0?t=7m10s
Code problem: https://youtu.be/cymH9pcFGa0?t=9m8s
I hope the maintainers and developers of bpftool make sure we don't end
up in an ambiguity mess like we have with 'ip', pretty please.
