I realised "-P" is available for use as the short form of the "suppress sys.path[0] initialisation" option. So "-p" would override the calculation of sys.path[0], while "-P" would switch it off completely (similar to the way "-S" and "-E" switch off other aspects of the normal initialisation process). Whether or not to provide "--path0" and "--nopath0" as long form alternatives would then be a separate question.
