The missing bit of this sentence:

    ...self cooked OPT_BOOL for force which forgets '-f'.

Makes sense. A possible rewrite (of the entire commit message):

    worktree: remove: recognize -f as short for --force

    Many commands support a --force option, frequently abbreviated as
    -f, however, "git worktree remove"'s hand-rolled OPT_BOOL forgets
    to recognize the short form, despite git-worktree.txt documenting
    -f as supported. Replace OPT_BOOL with OPT__FORCE, which provides
    -f for free, and makes 'remove' consistent with 'add' option
    parsing (which also specifies the PARSE_OPT_NOCOMPLETE flag).

The patch itself looks good. Thanks. With or without the above rewrite
or minor adjustment, this patch is:
