- Standards document outlines the -s flag is intended for 2-byte signed decimal display [1]
- OpenBSD, FreeBSD, GNU and Solaris support this meaning of -s [2]
- The -i flag already follows OpenBSD and prints 2-byte signed decimal, so make -s equivalent to -i
- NB: FreeBSD and GNU treat -i as decimal-of-size-int instead of decimal-of-two-bytes, but -i is not standardised
