rclone version
rclone v1.74.3
- os/version: debian 13.6 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 6.12.107+deb13-amd64 (x86_64)
- os/type: linux
- os/arch: amd64

What problem are you trying to solve?
--stats-one-line requires --stats to do anything. If you don't pass --stats the --stats-one-line flag is silently ignored.
How do you think rclone should be changed to solve that?
Printing a console warning to let the user know they need to use --stats
Getting involved
