Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Supporting keyword arguments has performance loss. For fast builtins it make be significant. We should defer adding keyword arguments support until more efficient parsing will implemented. Note that it is easier to implement efficient argument parsing for functions with positional-only arguments (see for example issue23867).
