Not sure. In some places I think "option" is an abbreviation of
"optional parameter". So using "option" there does not seem to be
inconsistent or incorrect.  See following example in create
subscription manual:

This clause specifies optional parameters for a subscription.
:
:
connect (boolean)
:
:
Since no connection is made when this option is false, no tables are 
subscribed.

You mean "publish"?

I would like to hear opinions from native English speakers.
