I'll join in here - I noticed this, but thought it might be my faulty
eyesight, so said nothing.
No, it is not a joke.

That looks to me like a hyphen. It is shorter than EM DASH and EN DASH.
I only have underscore and hyphen on my keyboard and would have to ask or
google how to type either EM DASH or EN DASH.

Try retyping the command. Perhaps it will work this time. I believe that
sometimes (not randomly, but in some circumstances) typing -- (two
consecutive hyphens) produces an EN DASH, so perhaps you typed --- (three
consecutive hyphens) by mistake.
