This alphabetti spaghetti of boot flags is getting ridiculous, there seems to be no central list anywhere, just random snippets across the web. Why is there not a Linus rant when you really need one? :-(

To be fair there is a list, although as you say the flags themselves are pretty random. Of course they can't be easily changed because that would break everyone's boot environment.

lsmod

modinfo ${somemodule}

This is elementary level linux, you should know this.
