It's the standard in the --help output of a program, because there is no
italic in it, but not in man pages, see conventions in man(1), and the
other man pages shipped in devscripts.

I can prepare and eventually apply a patch for the few pages that may
ship uppercases for options: chdist(1) and rmadison(1) (and a few more
in bts(1) dget(1) and mass-bug(1)) after a quick look, if we agree on
this nitpicking fix.

You just introduced an OPTIONS in e847505 by the way :).

Regards

David
