Ah, I get what you're saying now -- old UTC_ARGS are not accepted at all
anymore, and trying to update existing tests will just fail with an error!
We do need old UTC_ARGS to work. I think you can make the argument value
optional using these options:
```
nargs="?",
const="default",
default="default",
choices=["none", "smart", "all", "default"],
```
Or possibly omit const/default and handle None instead.
