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 CLI), 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.
