-1.
That ignores the value to the programmer in specifying keyword arguments
(there are a lot of arguments to the function, making keyword arguments
a better mean-what-you-say choice). To be equivalent, it would have to
be:
from argparse import actions
# ...
parser.add_argument('--plot', action=actions.store_true)
I prefer the string values.
