Reuben Thomas <r...@sc3d.org> added the comment:

A workaround to help users for now is:

>>> parser.add_argument('args', metavar='...', nargs=argparse.REMAINDER)

as then at least the help entry corresponds to the synopsis:

positional arguments:
  command
  ...

And with a `help` string, this can be clarified further, e.g.:

>>> parser.add_argument('args', metavar='...', nargs=argparse.REMAINDER, 
>>> help='arguments to the command')
