Isn't ordered dict also useful for **kwargs?

If it turns out that there's a dict implementation that's faster by not
preserving order, collections.UnorderedDict could be added.
There could also be specialized implementations that pre-size the dict (cf:
C++ unordered_map::reserve), etc., etc.
But these are all future things, which might not be necessary.
