        # .parse_known_args() assumes that any args that it doesn't
        # understand do not consume any values.  For example:
        #
        # aws ecs --cluster mycluster describe-tasks --tasks foo
        #
        # is not a valid command, because we ignore `--cluster`
        # and assume that `mycluster` is a subcommand.
        #
        # However, this command works:
        #
        # aws ecs --cluster=mycluster desribe-tasks --tasks foo
        #
        # Therefore we don't have to worry about the case where
        # a param *value* shadows the parsed subcommand because
        # the existing parser would have already errored out.
