I would argue that "--version" corresponds to our "About" screen. As it 
is also for most other graphical applications. Many of them don't have 
any splash screen to begin with.

Our splash screen should be more comparable to launching GCC or GDB with 
no arguments. When one does that, GDB does print the "NO WARRANTY" 
message, and GCC does not.
