Seems pedantic but i care for the details -- feel free to ignore this.
catgirl(1)'s DESCRIPTION talks about "options", so the use of
"arguments" is rather inconsistent; you'll find almost all of OpenBSD's
base manuals use "options" not "arguments" in that sentence.
I think mdoc(7) is wrong, I just sent a patch for that as well, thanks.

FWIW, I just committed a fix to mdoc(7) to not say arguments when it means
options:
DESCRIPTION
...
It usually follows with a breakdown of the options (if documenting
a command), such as:

.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Fl v
Print verbose information.
.El
List the options in alphabetical order, uppercase before lowercase
for each letter and with no regard to whether an option takes an
argument. Put digits in ascending order before all letter options.
