When trying to use some combinations of command-line arguments with the headless, the argument parser will fail. This happens when you try to combine arguments meant for regular Neos (such as "-LoadAssembly" or "-Invisible") with arguments meant for the headless (such as "-c", "-l", "-d").
This is thought to be caused by two different argument parsers processing this string. One of them belongs to regular Neos and is the one which knows what "-LoadAssembly" and "-Invisible" means, and the other is a part of the headless client, and is the one which can understand "-c", "-l", "-d".
If the headless argument parser encounters an argument that it does not understand, it will fail to use any of the arguments.
This essentially means that it is not possible to give arguments meant for regular Neos and the headless simultaneously.
Note: especially in the case of "-LoadAssembly", the headless will throw an error stating that it did not understand the argument, even though the assembly did actually get loaded by Neos.

To Reproduce
Attempt to launch the headless with arguments:
...\NeosVR\HeadlessClient\Neos.exe -l "...\NeosVR\HeadlessClient\TestFolder" -Invisible
or
...\NeosVR\HeadlessClient\Neos.exe -Invisible -l "...\NeosVR\HeadlessClient\TestFolder"
Note that the logs do not go to the TestFolder.
Now launch with the following (without "-Invisible"):

Any combination of arguments will work.
