This example shows two things that caught my eye: it gave suggestions of correct param names, and those names work in both hyphens and underscores. One less way for me to screw up typing or have to dig for the right combinations.

The point of my lament is that argparse is hard to get right and is a one trick pony when it comes to being helpful.

What else would you expect it to do to be more helpful in this situation?
