Because argparse works on input, too?
Many examples on https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html¹
explicitly pass a list of strings
Further thoughts on the OP's point:-

num =int(input ("Enter number"))

"num" doesn't magically turn it into a number. The `input` function returns a
string.
You might be thinking of Python 2.7 where `input` automatically evaluated the
