I will post to a different thread for my actual semi-proposal. But to answer the claim that late-bound arg defaults and late-bound everything-else are unrelated, and to start with an early version of what I'd actually want, I wrote this: https://github.com/DavidMertz/peps/blob/master/pep-9999.rst I could definitely use help making it better from anyone who is sympathetic with the idea of generalized deferred computation in Python.

PS To be clear, my objections to the PEP aren't based on deferred evaluation. So I'm an impartial 3rd party on this matter. I *do* have problems with the PEP, so I have an interest in seeing the PEP fairly reflect the lack of consensus, and accurately represent the concerns people are raising, but I don't have a preference for any specific outcome in the matter of deferred evaluation.
Thinking some more about this, my comments are pretty much what I'd be saying if I were a sponsor for this PEP. I don't think a PEP sponsor should be someone who doesn't agree with the PEP, otherwise I'd offer to take on the role (assuming you need a sponsor). But please take my comments in that vein. (And if you do ever manage to convert me to support of the PEP, remind me of this comment and I'll be the sponsor ;-))
