Stefan Miklosovic commented on CASSANDRA-20448:
-----------------------------------------------

I am open to the possibility of introducing more "robust" argument parsing, 
backed by some lib for that we use for other tooling already, but this needs to 
be agreed on explicitly as we will break how arguments will be working. 

> Utility sstableexpiredblockers should report the size of expired tables

> A key reason to run sstableexpiredblockers is that you have disk space 
> accumulating and you wish to investigate what's consuming the disk space.
> If size was included in the output (as shown below), it would make the output 
> more useful. Generally, when you find a blocked expired table, the first step 
> is to check what size it is to see if it's large enough to be a problem.
