Description

### Is this a new bug in dbt v2.x compared to the latest version of dbt 1.x?

- [x] I believe this is a new bug in dbt v2.x
- [x] I have searched the existing issues and could not find a duplicate

### Current Behavior

```bash
$ dbtf --version
dbt-fusion 2.0.0-preview.183

$ dbtf run --help | grep favor-state
# returns nothing

$ dbtf run --flavor-state
error: unexpected argument '--flavor-state' found

tip: a similar argument exists: '--favor-state'

For more information, try ' --help'.
```

### Expected Behavior

dbtf run --help documents the --favor-state option.

For example, using dbt (not dbtf)

```bash
$ dbt run --help | grep favor-state
--deprecated-favor-state TEXT Internal flag for deprecating old env var.
--favor-state / --no-favor-state
```

### Steps To Reproduce

1. dbtf run --help
2. Search output for --favor-state option

### Relevant log output

```shell

```

### Environment

```markdown
- OS: macOS 26.1
- CPU: Apple M3 Pro
- dbt distribution and version: dbt-fusion 2.0.0-preview.183
```

### Which database adapter are you using?

bigquery

### Is this a discrepancy vs. dbt 1.x?

- [x] Yes — this works in dbt 1.x but not in dbt v2.x

### Additional Context
