Since positional arguments is the main & historic parameter-passing
method, just keep order.
I think that would remove a huge chunk of the utility of having named
arguments, and it doesn't make things easier at all from the compiler's
perspective.
Consider:
Declaration:
void func(int a = 0, int b = 1);
Call:
func(b: 3); // a is default
Since b in the call is not in the same position as specified in the
declaration (position 0 instead of position 1), the compiler already has
to ignore the positioning of named arguments.
