Comment (by dd32):

 I would argue that 'p' is a query for the Post post_type, same as
 'page_id' is a query for Pages.  We also have `post__in` but that accepts
 an array of Post post_id's only.  Adding a specific `post_id` query var (a
 private one I assume for use only from within code) seems to be suggesting
 one should be using `get_post( $post_id );`.

 I'd expect that example to be written something like this, which is a lot
 more portable, and should work exactly as you're intending
 {{{
 $query = new WP_Query( array( 'cpt_query_var' => 'cpt_post_slug' ) );
 }}}
