I think that would be a question for Larry, since there are two main options here: - proposing just the "/" part of PEP 457 (which allows positional-only arguments, but doesn't allow the expression of all builtin and standard library signatures) - proposing the full PEP 547, including the "argument groups" feature (which is a bigger change, but allows the expression of signatures like "range([start,] stop, [step,] /)") One key benefit I'd see to a new subset-of-457 PEP is that it would allow a decision to be made on the basic "/" proposal without deciding one way or the other on whether or not to provide a native way to express signatures like the one for range().
