I am developing a script that accepts a time zone as an option. The

def main():

   parser.add_argument("-z", "--zone", choices=pytz.all_timezones)
[...]

It works, but when I run it with the -h option it dumps all entries in
pytz.all_timezones.

What happens if you just presupply a `help=` parameter in 
`add_argument`?
