Verbose and flexible args and kwargs syntax

This is really only a very minor point in my argument, so I dont want to 
put the focus on this.

But really, no.

Googling 'myprogramminglanguage conceptimtryingtofigureout' is my first, 
second and third line of defence. Yes, I could read the reference manual 
from top to bottom, and if I already knew about the existence of your 
article then im sure that would be a great help too. But the situation 
one finds oneself in is seeing two asterikses and not even being aware 
they are particular to function definitions/invocations. Im fluent in 
many different languages and well versed in CS concepts and jargon, but 
I had no idea what to search for when first trying to figure out the 
meaning of these symbols, and that does not happen often to me.
