The previous interface was slightly cumbersome - I often found myself wanting to source both datasets & narratives from some directory X and having to type in the rather long `--datasetDir X --narrativeDir X`, and often I'd misspell / pluralise the argument names; using a simple positional argument `X` is much nicer. The ability to use multiple directories is also functionality I've long wanted. The previous CLI interface is preserved in its entirety for backwards compatibility and is mutually exclusive with the new positional-args style.
