Content
The doc specified the Action API as the interface inherited from argparse.Action plus the addition of a custom __call__ method with 4 params (5 with self) as described. That seems mostly adequate to me, unless there is something missing in the parameter descriptions. I agree that it should be stated if one should pass the class rather than an instance thereof. (But classes are objects, so that is not a 'contradiction'.) If the example is in error, it should be fixed.
