[swift-evolution] named parameters - why hidden first?/proposal interest

When it comes to my own code, I agree with you 100%. However, if I
understand the Swift team's rationale, using a label for the first argument
is more often than not, bad form.

The point I was trying to make with the pros/cons bullet points is that,
even being charitable with the cons and understated about the pros, the
change still makes more sense.
