Yes, of course. But as I pointed out, the case at hand has
nothing to do with DWIM. Zero. It is simply about commands
that let a user choose an alternative behavior with a prefix
arg.
The command is not guessing anything. It is not using particular
information about the specific current context to choose among
possible behaviors. The user is explicitly specifying the
behavior to use.
