Add Rich-formatted help output for tito --help

Replace plain argparse help with custom Rich-formatted output:
- Intercept --help flag before argparse processes it
- Show ASCII logo at top (consistent with tito alone)
- Display commands in beautiful Rich table with colors
- Reuse _generate_welcome_text() for consistency
- Add formatted global options section

Benefits:
- Consistent Rich formatting across tito and tito --help
- Professional table layout for commands (green names, dim descriptions)
- Color-coded sections (cyan headers, yellow options, green commands)
- Same visual experience whether you run tito or tito --help
- All command info dynamically pulled from self.commands dict

Before: Plain black-and-white argparse output
After: Colorful, formatted Rich output with ASCII logo and tables

 % Abstract - REVISED: Curriculum design focus
 \begin{abstract}
-Machine learning systems engineering requires understanding framework internals: why optimizers consume memory, when computational complexity becomes prohibitive, how to navigate accuracy-latency-memory tradeoffs. Yet current ML education separates algorithms from systems—students learn gradient descent without measuring memory, attention mechanisms without profiling costs, training without understanding optimizer overhead. This divide leaves graduates unable to debug production failures or make informed engineering decisions. We present TinyTorch, a build-from-scratch curriculum where students implement PyTorch's core components (tensors, autograd, optimizers, neural networks) to gain framework transparency. Three pedagogical patterns address the gap: \textbf{progressive disclosure} gradually reveals complexity (gradient features exist from Module 01, activate in Module 05); \textbf{systems-first curriculum} embeds memory profiling from the start; \textbf{historical milestone validation} recreates nearly 70 years of ML breakthroughs (1958--2025) using exclusively student-implemented code. These patterns are grounded in learning theory (situated cognition, cognitive load theory) but represent testable hypotheses requiring empirical validation. The 20-module curriculum (60--80 hours) provides complete open-source infrastructure at \texttt{tinytorch.ai}.

 This section presents the 20-module curriculum structure, organized into four tiers that progressively build a complete ML framework. Each module enforces prerequisite mastery, ensuring students build on solid foundations.
 
+\noindent\textbf{Integration with ML Systems Curriculum.}
+TinyTorch serves as the hands-on implementation companion to the \emph{Machine Learning Systems} textbook~\citep{mlsysbook2025} (\texttt{mlsysbook.ai}), creating synergy between theoretical foundations and systems engineering practice. While the textbook covers the full ML lifecycle—data engineering, training architectures, deployment monitoring, robust operations, and sustainable AI—TinyTorch provides the complementary experience of building core infrastructure from first principles. This integration enables a complete educational pathway: students study production ML systems architecture in the textbook (Chapter 4: distributed training patterns, Chapter 7: quantization strategies), then implement those same abstractions in TinyTorch (Module 05: autograd for backpropagation, Module 15: INT8 quantization). The two resources address different aspects of the same educational gap: understanding both \emph{how production systems work} (textbook's systems architecture perspective) and \emph{how to build them yourself} (TinyTorch's implementation depth). This theory-practice coupling mirrors industry workflows where ML systems engineers both understand architectural patterns and implement infrastructure components.
+
 \subsection{Prerequisites}
 
 As established in \Cref{sec:intro}, TinyTorch targets students transitioning from framework users to framework engineers. The curriculum assumes intermediate Python proficiency (comfort with classes, functions, and NumPy array operations) alongside mathematical foundations in linear algebra (matrix multiplication, vectors) and basic calculus (derivatives, chain rule). Students should understand complexity analysis (Big-O notation) and basic algorithms. While prior ML coursework (traditional machine learning or deep learning courses) and data structures courses are helpful, they are not strictly required; motivated students can acquire these foundations concurrently.

 Students transition from ``models that train'' to ``systems that deploy.'' Profiling (14) teaches measuring time, memory, and FLOPs (floating-point operations), introducing Amdahl's Law: optimizing 70\% of runtime by 2$\times$ yields only 1.53$\times$ overall speedup because the remaining 30\% becomes the new bottleneck. This teaches that optimization is iterative and measurement-driven. Quantization (15) achieves 4$\times$ compression (FP32$\rightarrow$INT8) with 1--2\% accuracy cost. Compression (16) applies pruning and distillation for 10$\times$ shrinkage. Memoization (17) implements KV caching (storing attention keys and values to avoid recomputation), a technique used in production LLM serving: students discover that naive autoregressive generation recomputes attention keys and values at every step, generating 100 tokens requires 5,050 redundant computations (1+2+...+100). By caching these values and reusing them, students transform $O(n^2)$ generation into $O(n)$, achieving 10--100$\times$ speedup and understanding why this optimization is essential in systems like ChatGPT and Claude for economically viable inference. Acceleration (18) vectorizes convolution for 10--100$\times$ gains. Benchmarking (19) teaches rigorous performance measurement.
 
 \textbf{Capstone (Module 20).}
-The capstone integrates all 19 modules into production-optimized systems with professional submission infrastructure. Inspired by MLPerf~\citep{reddi2020mlperf}, students optimize prior milestones (CIFAR-10 CNN, transformer generation, or custom architecture) for 10$\times$ faster inference, 4$\times$ smaller size, and sub-100ms latency while maintaining accuracy. Module 20 provides complete benchmarking and submission infrastructure: \texttt{BenchmarkReport} class for collecting model metrics (parameter count, model size, accuracy, latency), \texttt{generate\_submission()} function producing standardized JSON with schema validation, and \texttt{tito community submit} CLI command for leaderboard submission. Students learn professional ML systems workflow: benchmark baseline model, apply optimizations from Modules 14--19 (quantization, pruning, acceleration), benchmark optimized version, generate submission with improvement metrics (speedup, compression ratio, accuracy delta), and validate against required schema. This teaches data-driven optimization mirroring real ML systems engineering while introducing reproducible benchmarking practices essential for production deployment.

 \noindent\textbf{Energy and Power Profiling.} Edge deployment and sustainable ML~\citep{strubell2019energy,patterson2021carbon} require understanding energy consumption. Future extensions could integrate power profiling tools enabling students to measure energy costs (joules per inference, watt-hours per training epoch) alongside latency and memory. This connects existing optimization techniques (quantization, pruning) taught in Modules 15--18 to concrete sustainability metrics, particularly relevant for edge AI~\citep{banbury2021benchmarking} where battery life constrains deployment.
 
+\noindent\textbf{Hardware Simulation Integration.}
+TinyTorch's current profiling infrastructure—memory tracking (tracemalloc), FLOP counting, and performance benchmarking—provides algorithmic-level performance analysis. A natural extension would integrate architecture simulators (e.g., scale-sim~\citep{samajdar2018scale}, timeloop~\citep{parashar2019timeloop}, astra-sim~\citep{kannan2022astrasim}) to connect high-level ML operations with cycle-accurate hardware models. This layered approach mirrors real ML systems engineering: students first understand algorithmic complexity and memory patterns in TinyTorch, then trace those operations down to microarchitectural performance in simulators. Such integration would complete the educational arc from algorithmic implementation $\rightarrow$ systems profiling $\rightarrow$ hardware realization, enabling first-principle analysis of how model architecture, system configuration (memory hierarchy, compute units, interconnects), and hardware substrate jointly determine production performance. Early discussions with students and collaborators suggest strong pedagogical value in this systems-to-hardware pipeline, maintaining TinyTorch's accessibility (no GPU hardware required) while preparing students for hardware-aware optimization through measurement-driven analysis rather than black-box experimentation.
+
 \noindent\textbf{Architecture Extensions.} Potential additions (graph neural networks, diffusion models, reinforcement learning) must justify inclusion through systems pedagogy rather than completeness. The question is not ``Can TinyTorch implement this?'' but rather ``Does implementing this teach fundamental systems concepts unavailable through existing modules?'' Graph convolutions might teach sparse tensor operations; diffusion models might illuminate iterative refinement trade-offs. However, extensions succeed only when maintaining TinyTorch's principle: \textbf{every line of code teaches a systems concept}. Community forks demonstrate this philosophy: quantum ML variants replace tensors with quantum state vectors (teaching circuit depth versus memory); robotics forks emphasize RL simulation overhead and real-time constraints. The curriculum remains intentionally incomplete as a production framework: completeness lies in foundational systems thinking applicable across all ML architectures.
 
-\subsection{Community Adoption and Impact}
+\subsection{Community and Sustainability}
 
-TinyTorch serves as the hands-on companion to the Machine Learning Systems textbook, providing practical implementation experience alongside theoretical foundations. Adoption will be measured through multiple channels: (1) \textbf{Educational adoption}: tracking course integrations, student enrollment, and instructor feedback across institutions; (2) \textbf{Capstone community}: inspired by MLPerf benchmarking, the Capstone leaderboard creates competitive systems engineering challenges where students submit optimized implementations competing across accuracy, speed, compression, and efficiency tracks, building community engagement and peer learning; (3) \textbf{Open-source metrics}: GitHub stars, forks, contributions, and community discussions indicating active use beyond formal coursework.
+As part of the ML Systems Book ecosystem (\texttt{mlsysbook.ai}), TinyTorch benefits from and contributes to broader educational infrastructure. Integration with the textbook's theoretical foundations~\citep{mlsysbook2025} enables a complete pedagogical pathway: students study production ML systems architecture (distributed training patterns, quantization strategies, deployment considerations), then implement those abstractions in TinyTorch (autograd for backpropagation, INT8 quantization, profiling infrastructure). The open-source model (MIT license) and community-driven development enable collaborative refinement across institutions: instructor discussion forums for pedagogical exchange, shared teaching resources, and empirical validation of learning outcomes.
 
-The submission infrastructure integrates directly into the CLI workflow. Students benchmark their optimized models using Module 20's \texttt{BenchmarkReport} class, generate standardized JSON submissions via \texttt{generate\_submission()}, and submit to the community leaderboard using \texttt{tito community submit submission.json}. The CLI validates submissions against required schema (checking metric ranges, field types, and completeness), displays improvement summary (speedup, compression ratio, accuracy delta), and prepares submissions for leaderboard integration. While leaderboard backend remains under development, the validation infrastructure is production-ready, teaching students professional benchmarking practices: reproducible metrics collection, standardized reporting formats, and schema-driven data validation. Students can also join the global community via \texttt{tito community join} (GitHub-authenticated profiles), view the leaderboard via \texttt{tito community leaderboard} (opens browser), and participate in optimization challenges via \texttt{tito community compete}.
-
-This multi-faceted approach recognizes that educational impact extends beyond traditional classroom metrics to include community building, peer learning, and long-term skill development. The Capstone platform particularly enables students to see how their implementations compare globally, fostering systems thinking through competitive optimization while maintaining educational focus on understanding internals rather than achieving state-of-the-art performance.
+Module 20 (Capstone) culminates the curriculum with competitive systems engineering challenges. Inspired by MLPerf benchmarking~\citep{reddi2020mlperf}, students optimize their implementations across accuracy, speed, compression, and efficiency dimensions, comparing results globally through standardized benchmarking infrastructure. This competitive element reinforces systems thinking: optimization requires measurement-driven decisions (profiling bottlenecks), principled tradeoffs (accuracy versus compression), and reproducible methodology (standardized metrics collection). The focus remains pedagogical—understanding \emph{why} optimizations work—rather than achieving state-of-the-art performance, but the competitive framing increases engagement and mirrors real ML engineering workflows.

No GPU access required, no cloud credits needed, no infrastructure barriers.
