That is not a very good example, since sys.argv[0] contains the name of
the script. It would be less confusing if the example said

:python sys.argv = ["myscript.py", "foo", "bar"]
:pyfile myscript.py

Try

py3 sys.argv = ["somepythonfile.py", "--version"]

It works for me. Typing these commands in sequence:

py3 sys.argv = ["argument"]
py3file /tmp/test.py

With /tmp/test.py:

print("testing pyfile")
print(sys.argv)
print("testing end")

Output:

testing pyfile
['argument']
testing end

This is on Ubuntu, Python 3.10.
