Comment (by daira):

 It is not the case that `--basedir=` overrides `--node-directory=`; only
 one may be present.

 Better would be:
 {{{
 $ bin/tahoe start --help
 Usage:  tahoe [global-opts] start [options] [NODEDIR]
 (use 'tahoe --help' to view global options)

 Options:
   -p, --profile   Run under the Python profiler, putting results in
                   'profiling_results.prof'.
       --syslog    Tell the node to log to syslog, not a file.
   -C, --basedir=  Specify which Tahoe base directory should be used.
                   [default: '/Users/warner/.tahoe']. This has the same
                   effect as the global --node-directory option.
       --version
       --help      Display this help and exit.
 }}}
