It could be but I've seen them used somewhere else.
I wouldn't bikeshed on this yet, as I haven't found a way to do this so
far. Let's imagine the following parser:
parser.add_argument('things',action='append')
parser.add_argument('stuff',action='append')
At least from my point of view, I don't any way to separate both lists
on this command call:
cool-script.py thing1 thing2 stuff1 stuff2
Do I miss something here?
Best
