You must specify weights whenever you want them.
Strictly, you specify them as weights, not as options.
Options are whatever follows the first comma on a command
line. Weights are specified before options.
The opposite kind of syntax is evidently possible, but
it is not Stataish. The only exception to this that
I can think of, which is not really an exception, is
that if you -expand- using frequency weights all subsequent
commands are as if they were frequency weighted.
