-The switch names `no-interactive`, `cross`, `json`, `status` and `help` are reserved and cannot be used as template variable names. Switches take no value: `--json=false` is rejected with a usage error. A flag that names no blank in the template (e.g. a typo like `--fiel=x`) is also an error.
+The switch names `no-interactive`, `cross`, `json`, `status` and `help` are reserved and cannot be used as template variable names. Switches take no value: `--json=false` is rejected with a usage error. A flag that names no blank in the template (e.g. a typo like `--fiel=x`) is also an error. So is a blank left unfilled under `--no-interactive` or piped stdin: `promptargs` exits 1 with `Missing value for {{name}}: ...` rather than printing the raw placeholder.
