Why did the -nodesktop startup option disappeared from the documentation?

On Windows one can run Matlab without the IDE by supplying the '-nodesktop' option to the matlab command.
However, neither the official documentation page:
Nor
matlab -h
List this option. Is this intentionally undocumented or is this option deprecated?

Short answer: -nodesktop has never been officially supported on Windows.

Not documented for windows for your release but it is documented for Linux for your release.
Just because something shows up in a -help list does not mean that it is officially supported.
