Could you possibly write text to document them there? --no-desktop is not documented in the cmdargs.texi and emacs.c. Could you add that? --find-file and many display options are not documented in the startup.el. Perhaps the documentation of command line arguments in the comments section of the startup.el is redundant because it is not helpful for users. To save effort, we may as well get rid of that duplicate documentation.
