I’m not familiar with this module, but I believe “lock” is indeed keyword-only. If you were to try a positional argument, it would be picked up as part of *args:

>>> multiprocessing.Value("I")  # Default to 0, lock=True
<Synchronized wrapper for c_uint(0)>
>>> multiprocessing.Value("I", False)  # False == 0, still lock=True
<Synchronized wrapper for c_uint(0)>
>>> multiprocessing.Value("I", lock=False)
c_uint(0)
