https://bugs.python.org/issue9338 argparse optionals with nargs='?', '*' or '+' can't be followed by positionals As you can see this is an old issue, but still too big for a quick fix. As a general rule, don't use `nargs` like this where there's ambiguity as to how many values will be allocated to the argument.
