You have the option.  Given this signature:

   func foo(intArg: Int, stringArg: String) -> Bool { ... }

add this code to call the function without named arguments.

   func foo(intArg: Int, _ stringArg: String) -> Bool {
       return foo(intArg, stringArg: stringArg)
   }

Now you can call it either way.

I like that I do NOT have the ability to mix and match calling conventions
by accident which could possibly confuse code readers. Especially when I am
the code reader!  If I really need the the option to do mix styles adding
code such as that above wouldn’t be an issue.
