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.

I would like to hear opinions from native English speakers.
