In 3.11 the problem is still there, but the cutoff to make Eric's script show it is now 26 rather than 8:

% ./python.exe tt.py 25
usage: tt.py [-h] [-v | -q | -x [X] | -y [Y] | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z | Z]

% ./python.exe tt.py 26
usage: tt.py [-h] [-v] [-q] [-x [X]] [-y [Y]]
             [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z] [Z]
