Comment(by timdumol):

 Functions that inherit from `PrimitiveFunction` are automatically given
 `nargs = 1` on L800 of `symbolic/function.pyx`. So the silent dropping of
 arguments is more of a usability problem on the Symbolic side.

 I've made the changes for the derivatives of `asech(x)` and `acsch(x)`.
 I've also generalized the derivatives for `asec(x)` and `acsc(x)`.

 Anyone who wants to review the derivatives can check:
