I already explained my reasoning for this. And the historic reasoning is not

Ethereal is a completely different tool so I don't think any comparision with
that is fair.
Since --trace already contains all the info you want and in the order and flow

I would much rather either adjust one of the --trace* options or perhaps even
add a third one, than modify what -i and -D do.
