Is it the case in the implementation? If it has to create a temporary
list/tuple, I will prefer to not use it.
The function call machinery will create a new tuple for
the positional args in any case. But if you manually
combine your * args into a tuple before calling, there
are *two* tuple allocations being done. Passing all the
* args directly into the call would allow one of them
to be avoided.
Similarly for dicts and ** args.
