> Instead of named arguments, use the functional optional pattern. Options pattern is an alternative, I use it frequently, but still miss named arguments and default arguments if I'm going back and forth with Python. - The options pattern is much more verbose to implement. - The defaults aren't as easily clear, they need to be documented and kept consistent. - You can't, or it's not as easy to, make some arguments required. - And, as a caller, if the API I'm using doesn't support them, I sometimes have to rely on comments to clarify what each arg is. For example, if a function takes a bools like `func MyFunc(dryrun, inverse bool, items ...string) error { ... }`
