You are correct. I still prefer it my way.
This helped me tremendously, and the more common "error" for me is getting
a damaged pcap files rather than mistyping the command.

Usually if an input file doesn't exists (2) or is a directory (3) the
user can't do anything to fix this other then fixing the command line, so
joincap just ignores it and saves the user some time.

If the user mistyped the pathname of a file, it only saves them time if
the contents of the file whose pathname they typed didn't need to be in the
resulting file.  If they *did* expect that file's packets to be in the
file, they end up with a file that doesn't contain what they think it
did....
