Because non-option arguments are ignored when the command line is
processed as the corresponding handler is set to NULL and setup doesn't
check if there are any remaining arguments after option processing.
That could be changed, I guess.

As far as setup is concerned, the command lines are correct. To do what
you want, you can either comma-separate the package names behind a
single package option
setup-x86.exe -M -P docbook-xsl,xmlto
or give one package per package option
setup-x86.exe -M -P docbook-xsl -P xmlto
or even mix the two styles
setup-x86.exe -M -P docbook-xsl,xmlto -P docbook-utils
HTH.

Achim.
