Martin Panter added the comment:

I’m not super familiar with argparse, but to get a Path or FilePath object, 
can’t you use that directly instead of argparse’s FileType class?

The proposal would conflict with escaping a literal tilde (~) in the shell. It 
would make it harder for the end user to specify a real file name that starts 
with a tilde.
