SQL Data Compare Professional 14, UI works, commandline does not

Hi I have an odd issue..

If I run below on windows 
SQLDataCompare.exe /server1:10.160.167.9\MSSQL2016 /database1:SkatScriptDB2 /Include:table:\[dbo\]\.\[IVRMenuStats\] /server2:10.160.167.66 /database2:SkatScriptDB2_shadow SkatScriptDB2_shadow /mts:500 /sync /options:CaseSensitiveObjectDefinition
it fails with this error:
SQL Data Compare Command Line V14.2.9.15508

If I do the same with UI it works as expected... Any Ideas on what might be wrong?

    removing /options:CaseSensitiveObjectDefinition fixed the problem.
