Should work exactly the same.

This one was tricky ... I cut-and-pasted your commands and had the same
error, which puzzled me for a bit.

If you look closely at the "--reportopts", you'll notice a double 
equal-sign. That's what is causing the problem.

There's actually a script included with Hobbit - hobbitreports.sh - 
which generates daily, weekly and monthly availability reports.
Perhaps you could use that as a template ?
