[issue24952] stack_size([size]) is actually stack_size(size=0)

[Martin Panter]

Martin Panter added the comment:

In my mind this notation implies the folowing should work:

>>> threading.stack_size(size=0)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: stack_size() takes no keyword arguments

Perhaps you really just want make it more explicit that the special value 0 is used by default if the argument omitted? See also Issue 8706 about supporting named keyword parameters, and Issue 13386 and Issue 23738 about other possible notations to document the default value.
