Personally I like allowing calls, but just using kwargs, like f(x=5), forcing explicit variable naming, at the same time it would be a convenience function for .subs(). That is unless f is declared as a function like f(x) = x^3 because the declaration would imply variable order. If one wants to keep the convenience of using f(5) at least it would be better to only allow one substitution for x, since x already has an established status (if one wants it even more generic, allow only single-variable functions). That way calling f(5,3) would raise an error and force the user to explicitly order the variables.
