I guess man tar is cheating, but it is a command involving tar. Not a command using tar, but a tar command...

I suppose tar --help would technically be a valid invoking of the binary itself if man tar doesn't

But it would not work on older non-GNU versions of tar.

GNU introduced the "--foo" style long options, and it was a long time before Unix versions began adopting them.

It didn’t say you could only enter one try, just that you had 10 seconds. The man page should give you something

True. But then I would use curl cheat.sh/tar
