I am guilty of suggesting "swapped"; even if we are going to mark
this as OPT_HIDDEN, I think we should be able to think of a better
name.  I think the meaning of this boolean is "we know that this is
not a guide and is meant to be a command.", and I hope we can come
up with a name that concisely expresses that (e.g. "--not-a-guide",
"--must-be-a-command").

I think "--cmd-only" is a good name.  With a good name I think it's worth
to make this option visible to the user.

Sure.  I'd prefer "cmd" to be spelled out in anything that is
end-user facing, though.
