The usage formatting is fragile, with many associated bug reports.  Until someone does a major rewrite, it is best to avoid special characters, especially `()` and `[]` in the `dest` or `metavar`.

Usage uses () to encolde mutually_exclusive_groups and [] to mark non-required arguments.  Don't confuse your users (or argparse) with other uses of these characters.
