I’d not add a short option for now. Short options are overrated and don’t need to exist anyway.

I guess the viable solution would be to add a flag to optionally respect catchup (and perhaps emit a warning when the command is run without the option but with catchup=False, to tell the user to explicitly specify the behaviour).
