​The options you pass from the client via the "options" attribute are
interpreted by *the server* as command-line options. They are not options

I can kinda see the confusion here but I'm not sure how to write it more
clearly without being excessively verbose. I haven't seen this particular
confusion before so I'd say the wording is reasonable and the mailing lists
are doing their job of providing a forum for providing clarity.
