May I suggest to change it again so we two sections: required and optional? This can help to be more clear from usage perspective. I have changed it locally and it looks like below:

usage: myprogram.py [-h] [--foo FOO] --bar BAR

required arguments:
  --bar BAR   foo help

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
  --foo FOO   foo help
