That this works now is basically an unintended side-effect of the fact that %uncompress just passes any arguments to rpmuncompress, and that's not something we want to advertise, macros should validate their own options. But none of the built-ins take options so there's a bunch of infra missing for that.
OTOH, if all you want is to call rpmuncompress, than just call it by that name (%__rpmuncompress) and there is no issue at all.
