Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Review the existing boolean option parsing and clarify which alternative syntaxes must be supported, including how each maps to enabled and disabled values. Done means the chosen syntaxes parse consistently and are covered by tests.

Description

enhancement

The --{no-}key syntax can be fairly limiting. We could support alternatives, like --with{out}-key, --{enable,disable}-key, etc.
