Yes.  python doesn't do method overloading (it does overload operators with
some magic method names, though).  Keyword args are quite nice, though.  It's
also possible to use the general purpose **kwargs and then have each method
pick out the args it's interested in.  It's probably safer and nicer to just
have the same signature for all methods of the same name.
