This is a great use case ;-) Let's add it.
I propose the following method: BoundArguments.apply_defaults()
It will iterate through its parent Signature's parameters and assign default
values to BoundArguments.arguments (when an arg is missing), including setting
'()' for *args, and '{}' for **kwargs.
If you're OK with this, I can draft a patch.
