Right.
How can I have read the wget man page so many times and not have seen that? I guess it's 'cause I'm always looking for something specific, like the difference between "-o" and "-O".
The only think I hate worse than being wrong is not knowing it (plus showing it).
Wget is orphaned? That's bad news, since it seems to have it all over cURL. (Sure. Go ahead and prove me wrong. I might as well get it over with... for now.)

I'd suggest taking this to the wget list, except wget it currently maintainer-less, and, it appears, bitrotted. Max.
