It looks like tgz is doing what you told it to do. If you'd like it
to do something different for --help, you'll have to write to the tgz
maintainer. There's nothing bash can do about this.

No, bash isn't doing that. rm is doing that. rm belongs to the GNU
coreutils package. This is also not a problem with bash. The
coreutils FAQ explains how to deal with this:
