[issue29030] argparse: choices override metavar

[Martin Panter]

Martin Panter added the comment:

I think the documentation should be fixed to say choices overrides dest, and the implementation should be left alone. Even if the documentation is not a “formal module reference”, it should not be wrong or misleading.

Also, Issue 14039 is related, about “metavar” with “add_subparsers”.
