[issue9694] argparse required arguments displayed under "optional arguments"

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettinger at gmail.com> added the comment:

Since this change will break tests that rely matching help output exactly, I  would like to hear if there are any objections to replacing "optional arguments" with "options".

The words "switch" or "flag" don't work as well because they imply on/off and don't encompass option that take arguments.
