Here is an example..
~/Documents/brigadier-master/brigadier -h
Usage: brigadier [options]
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-m MODEL, --model=MODEL
System model identifier to use (otherwise this
machine's model is used). This can be specified
multiple times to download multiple models in a single
run.
-i, --install After the installer is downloaded, perform the install
automatically. Can be used on Windows only.
-o OUTPUT_DIR, --output-dir=OUTPUT_DIR
Base path where the installer files will be extracted
into a folder named after the product, ie.
'BootCamp-041-1234'. Uses the current directory if
this option is omitted.
-k, --keep-files Keep the files that were downloaded/extracted. Useful
only with the '--install' option on Windows.
-p PRODUCT_ID, --product-id=PRODUCT_ID
Specify an exact product ID to download (ie.
'031-0787'), currently useful only for cases where a
model has multiple BootCamp ESDs available and is not
downloading the desired version according to the post
date.

Look at how the '-p' qualifier is used. As you can see the '-p' can be used to select a specific 'product' package.
The '-m' qualifier is the actual Model Identifier, not the literal string 'qualifier'. 😉
