On Unix, it is a convention for shells to accept -i for an interactive shell and many
tools expect this behavior (script for example, and when setting powershell as the
default shell) and calls the shell with the -i switch. This change is breaking in
that -i previously could be used as short hand to match -inputformat which now will
need to be -in.
