(I guess the --eval argument will do some editing, because otherwise
all you'd be able doing is numerical calculations, and that will make
Emacs pretty much useless.)

No, there's no such option, if I understand you correctly.  Emacs
cannot work without at least one buffer and one window, even in batch
mode (though it never displays that window under -batch).
