Not so.  This is related to the recent MinTTY changes[0].  I get the
bugged behaviour on v2.2.1-0, but if I downgrade to v2.1.5-0, I get the
behaviour Brian is describing as correct, with the command line
arguments preserved when the program is pinned.

I'll guess this is, in particular, related to the "optional Windows
taskbar integration" listed in the changelog in the announcement email.
