Quoting from Victor Stinner's reply on python-dev 
(https://mail.python.org/archives/list/[email protected]/message/X6SZIVOZ233TLLJV43UQEHMV3ELGP34S/):

If there are applications relying on the parameter name, it's better
to trust the Python implementation, rather than the documentation.

It would be better to make these parameters positional only in the
first place, but now it's too late for such backward incompatible
change :-(
