Research direction: Investigate how command line arguments from Directory.Build.rsp are parsed and applied. Look at the code that handles the noLogo flag in the MSBuild source, likely in the executable or shared components. The issue reporter notes that noLogo appears in diagnostics but has no effect, so the flag is recognized but not applied. Check if the flag is being processed after the logo is already displayed or if there is a conditional that checks for command line origin. Compare the handling of arguments from command line versus response file.
