paul j3 <ajipa...@gmail.com> added the comment:

Use of 'prefix_chars' as a argument_group parameter is not documented, nor 
intended.  

If it does appear to work in the help formatting, it is probably the result of 
inheritance, since both ArgumentParser and Argument_group subclass a 
_Actions_Container class.  I'd have to examine the code to see what's 
happening.  Argument_groups are used only for help formatting, not for parsing.

In any case, I don't think anything needs to be changed or fixed.
