Comment (by daira):

 I take it this is talking about:
 {{{
       --dir-cap=   Specify which dirnode URI should be used as the 'tahoe'
                    alias.
 }}}

 That is ''not'' the option that !CyberAxe should use, since all it does is
 change the meaning of the `tahoe:` alias (which is basically useless and,
 IIUC, a holdover from a point when all paths were implicitly relative to
 that alias).

 I don't see the exact phrase "The dircap you specify will be used as the
 tahoe alias" anywhere.
