I count 42 of them remaining, usually for 0-argument functions.
METH_OLDARGS is faster than METH_VARARGS in that case, and the callee can
distinguish between "called with nothing" and "called with something" under
OLDARGS. However, they don't appear to catch keyword args:
>>> {}.clear(2) # complains
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: function takes no arguments
>>> {}.clear(val=12, hohoho=666) # accepts nonsense silently
>>>
