Can confirm that this patch DOES cause backward compatibility issues, as paul.j3's gut feeling said it could. One of my projects, testing against 3.6-3.9, now fails its test suite on Python 3.9.8, which includes this change. Arguments passed to a subparser are indeed ignored in lieu of default values. We are tracking the problem in our own issue, https://github.com/sopel-irc/sopel/issues/2210

I, for one, am not amused that 7-year-old behavior was "clobbered" (as previously described in this thread) in a patch release.
