Old XKCD, still relevant

Was trying to extract a totally legit copy of Skate 3 I downloaded today to play on my Steam Deck
Actually this reminds me, what is the deal with tar command recommendations to use or not use dash? I know GNU tar accepts both (e.g.)
tar xvf file.tarandtar -xvf file.tar, but at some points people were like "NO! Don't use the dash! It's going to maybe cause issues somewhere, who knows!" and I was like "OK". Something to do with people up designing the Unix specs?I didn't even know the dash was optional. I guess you learn something new everyday.
I still use it though. Its how I learned it all those years ago and its ingrained as muscle memory when typing the command.
