Is this the first time we introduce completion (I guess you could call
it "help") for short options?  I only did a quick search for /-. -/ but
it certainly seems that way.

Yeah.  We generally prefer the long-form equivalents while doing
completions, but these blame options do not have equivalent
long-forms.

But providing short options for completion is pointless.  Those who
know git blame's short options will just type them right away, because
it requires less key presses than using completion, and those who
don't know these options will only see -C, -M, etc. and won't have any
clues what it stands for.
