I view the "git -c var.val=foo cmd" as a reasonable way to make sure that the test is not affected by any stale state in .git/config left behind by an earlier test that did "git config var.val bar" and then failed to clean itself up, but I do not think it is all that intereseting to test the inter-changeability between config and command line option "-n" while checking its interaction with another option e.g. "--column".
