Mostly privacy issue, so we won't have to write the password in run arguments in plain text.
Also, -qr is shorter than -username <user> -password <pass>, so convenience as well.
How would you like it to be solved?
Implement an additional run argument, -qr, for example. The functionality should be similar to how SteamDB Token Dumper has it, showing the QR code in the console, which I'm to scan with the Steam mobile app.
Have you considered any alternative solutions
As far as I'm aware, there's none, only using my username and password with further confirmation via Steam Guard.
