Yeah, the % formatting is an artifact of argparse being around before str.format was available. If argparse became part of the standard library, it might be reasonable to change to str.format formatting instead as part of the move. It would mean that folks would have to modify their code to switch from the current argparse module to the stdlib one, but maybe that's an acceptable tradeoff. I'm certainly happy to change things to str.format if that's agreed on. Thanks again for looking at this.
