@pablogsal One request for the PEP: add a “How to teach this” section (per the template in [PEP 12](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0012/#suggested-sections) or the list of suggested sections in [PEP 1](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0001/#what-belongs-in-a-successful-pep)). Doesn’t have to be a lot of text. Perhaps a suggested change to the Tutorial in the docs? Surely there’s a place there where keyword args are discussed, that would be a good place to discuss positional args as well, leading with a realistic example.
