Can I change the default away from positional?

[beauxq]

@dataclass
class MyArgs:
    aaa: str = "x"
    bbb: Literal["w1", "w2",] = "w2"
    ccc: str = "something"
    ddd: int = 7


print(parse(MyArgs))

It would be a lot of extra noisy code to add Arg(long=True) to all of these.

It would be nice if I could just pass something to parse that would make it so long=True is the default.

Is there a way to do that?
(Consider this a feature request if there isn't.)

You can do @cappa.command(default_long=True).

Although i dont see this mentioned anywhere in the docs other than the autogenerated api reference, and that's worth fixing anyways

The reason it's not an argument to parse is because the choice is very likely tied to the command (you couldn't really flip flop the value between True/False for an arbitrary command and expect it to work both ways, due to various interactions with positional arguments and list inference for example).
