 In {{{BaseExpression}}} we have the following:


 {{{
     def resolve_expression(self, query=None, allow_joins=True, reuse=None,
 summarize=False, for_save=False):
           ...
 }}}

 Here we have a couple default arguments. A decent number of callsites for
 this method only provide positional arguments. The {{{Exists}}} subclass
 assumes keyword-only arguments:

 {{{
     def resolve_expression(self, query=None, **kwargs):
         # As a performance optimization, remove ordering since EXISTS
 doesn't
         # care about it, just whether or not a row matches.
         self.queryset = self.queryset.order_by()
         return super(Exists, self).resolve_expression(query, **kwargs)
 }}}

 I've submitted a patch ([https://github.com/django/django/pull/9671]) that
 adds support for positional arguments for {{{Exists.resolve_expression}}},
 but perhaps the intention was for the base method to be keyword-only.
