[issue24441] In argparse add_argument() allows the empty choices argument

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

There's no real reason to throw an error here, and to do so would break backward compatibility and, arguably, functionality: someone autogenerating a choices list might depend on the empty list working.
