The current example incorrectly shows integer literals in the
parse_args()list (i.e., the code is actually invalid and results in aTypeError) and uses a confusingtype=intconversion that isn't relevant to demonstratingsuggest_on_error.This PR simplifies the example to use realistic string choices without the unnecessary type conversion.
Reader's note: I was the one who originally added this example to the docs in #124456 🤦♀️
