Of course it would be irrelevant for a function that only took positional arguments.

I was demonstrating the existence of such things in general since OP seemed unaware. For the proposal, you'd of course only use it for functions that took more kinds of arguments.

Thanks for pointing it out. Still, it seems highly unlikely someone would decide to use such a function declaration yet want to use the proposed syntax to pass both positional and keyword arguments.
