Description
### Description of the feature request:
Right now, the `--platforms` flag accepts multiple values but only the first is actually used.
Instead, the flag should be single-valued and give an error if multiple values are passed.
Further, the flag should actually be `--platform` and uses should be migrated, but that may be harder to manage.
