Thanks for a reasoned argument and a reasonable justification.  I
agree with all that.  

I think it is probably a good idea to document the behaviour
(i.e. "--no-create" single-shot from the command line is ignored).
I am not sure we should error out, though, in order to "disallow"
it---a documented silent no-op may be sufficient.
