This is useful for commands such as `augur distance` which have descriptions written in rST. The rST syntax is preserved and could be removed with a custom formatter class (as done in Nextstrain CLI¹), but simply using the built-in RawDescriptionHelpFormatter is an improvement over the default behavior. Note that this only applies to descriptions, not help text for options. ¹ https://github.com/nextstrain/cli/blob/d4a419626eb5dc64e6de08566e51c5b48814727d/nextstrain/cli/argparse.py#L53
