-   You may also specify an arbitrary action by passing an :class:`Action` subclass or
-   other object that implements the same interface. The :class:`!BooleanOptionalAction`
-   is available in :mod:`!argparse` and adds support for boolean actions such as
-   ``--foo`` and ``--no-foo``::
+   A subclass of :class:`Action` for handling boolean flags with positive
+   and negative options. Adding a single argument such as ``--foo`` automatically
+   creates both ``--foo`` and ``--no-foo`` options, storing ``True`` and ``False``
+   respectively::
