These days, I prefer more expressive option names. As long as a short prefix is unique, length doesn't really matter. Here, --p is enough. However, --preserve-status seems ok, too. There is precedent for using "status" to mean "exit status" with md5sum's --status option. Your call.
I've a slight preference for --preserve-status so. thanks, Pádraig.
