How to disable styles?

I have a number of Python CLI programs, some of which use subparsers, so I thought I'd try this to see how it looks. However, I find that it interprets rich styles in my code which I did not intend. E.g. it seems I have commonly written "applications[s]" to indicate one or more applications but I am getting a strike-through on all those lines. How can I disable style interpretation?

I already tried RichHelpFormatter.highlights.clear() and RichHelpFormatter.usage_markup = False but no difference.

I added those 2 options but now my help outputs:

default="[argparse.default]https://micropython.org/pi/
+                        v2/index.json[/argparse.default]"

instead of

default="https://micropython.org/pi/v2/index.json"

Yes this is a bug, thanks for the report. I'll fix it and cut a bugfix release shortly.
