-1. We have already had way WAY too much debate about the alternative ways to handle kwargs in subscripts, and quite frankly, I don't think this is adding anything new to the discussion. Can we just stop bikeshedding this already and let this matter settle down? You still aren't showing any advantage over just allowing the current dunder to receive kwargs.
