R. David Murray added the comment:
This is almost a duplicate of issue 9253. Your proposed semantics are
different, but it would be better to carry on a discussion of the "correct"
semantics in that ticket rather than have two separate and conflicting ones, so
I'm closing this as duplicate.
New submission from Michael.Elsdörfer :
>>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
>>> subparsers = parser.add_subparsers(title="commands")
>>> subparser = subparsers.add_parser('make')
>>> parser.add_argument('jobs', nargs='*')
>>> parser.print_help()
usage: [-h] {make} ... [jobs [jobs ...]]
