program mode determined from arguments count [optparse-applicative]

Question

i will determine the program mode from the arguments count (without flags / 'subparser' & 'command') but without success.

ghci session

main% stack ghci optparse-applicative
Configuring GHCi with the following packages: 
GHCi, version 7.10.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
λ: :load Main.hs 
[1 of 1] Compiling Main             ( Main.hs, interpreted )
Ok, modules loaded: Main.
λ: :main -v
v 0.0.1
λ: :main a
mode 1 with a: a
λ: :main a b
Usage: <interactive> (-v | a | a b)
*** Exception: ExitFailure 1

with :main a b i expected mode 2 with a: a and b: b as the result.

what did i miss? thanks!
