If the client is passing an option to the server, it is generally for a
good reason, most commonly because you passed the option to the client
and the server needs to help the client carry out the requested
behavior.  Some options (including --log-file, --log-file-format, and
--fake-super) can meaningfully be passed directly to the server, but
messing with other server options is asking for trouble.  Which
automatically passed option are you unhappy with and why?
