Description

Hello,

We would like to better understand the `dotnet` verbs and the arguments/options they support when they happen to have a relation between them.
For example, we know that `dotnet build` is a superset of `dotnet restore`, yet `dotnet build` doesn't support every single argument `dotnet restore` supports. Same for `dotnet run` and `dotnet build`.

How do we decide which arguments to support and which to don't support? We want to understand if there are some rules we are following with respect to the `dotnet` verbs if they are a subset/superset of each other.

Thank you.
