But hopefully one is not looking for an argument that is being removed
as it is processed :/

Now I understand.

I think it is meant that command-line-args is also
having those other arguments like -nw for example.

So -nw must be processed by Emacs itself and thus
it will be removed in that process.

That is just thinking.
