Yes. Positional parameters don't have keywords; they are so important
that they are recognized from their position. Keyword parameters have a
name and a value, and that value can be defaulted. Future keywords will
work this way too.
Elijah & I argued at length about this. He wanted everything to be
keywords; I thought that for often-used stuff the user would forget the
keyword but would perhaps remember that threadpool comes first. I'm not
sure whether this thread is evidence favoring either position.

But what about the 'value' parameter?
Is it the case that the value parameter for the 'worker' keyword is a
switch which (if zero) would makes t. behave as if the 'worker'
keyword was p,otted
If so, is this also likely to be the case for future keywords?
