Should the "other commands" be converted to flags?

[gumieri]

The current command interface makes not possible for creating notes with the first word coincides with the name of a command.
Like:

note show something to someone

It would not create the note.

The way to do it would be using quotes:

note "show something to someone"

If we change the commands to flags it would be possible.
I am not so favorable to the approach of using flags as command, for me flags are only for the purpose of informing named parameters/values.

But I'm not sure if it would be the case for the note considering the simplicity of the tool.

I would love to have the opinion of anyone using note. What do you think, would be better to have --show, --edit, --delete and --list flags instead of commands (breaking the actual interface) to be able to use these words at the beginning without quotes when creating notes?
