Hmm, I see what you mean. It's not a modeswitch to shorthand, it's a
modeswitch to keyword-only parameters. I think it's still vulnerable
to the problem of near-identical syntax having extremely different
semantics, but it's at least less annoying that way.
But I still definitely prefer the original proposal.
