Not sure what the implications of argparse would be? If the meaning is divided into three as per my previous description, it absolutely would be possible to "import pint; 3m + 4cm" to get that result, assuming that pint is enhanced to register itself in this way. It might work out better to write it as "import pint; pint.register_si(); print(3m + 4cm)" to explicitly choose the SI unit set, but that'd be in the hands of the pint maintainers.
