Issue 45927: timeit accepts -c/--clock and -t/--time without any functionality
From the code:
opts, args = getopt.getopt(args, "n:u:s:r:tcpvh",
["number=", "setup=", "repeat=",
"time", "clock", "process",
"verbose", "unit=", "help"])
but the options -c and -t are not used in the subsequent code.
This can lead to situations where if you mistype e.g. -s as -c, you get completely wrong results (see https://bugs.python.org/issue45902 for an example).
