Rationale behind not setting positional arguments to positional only for few functions.

[RickSanchezStoic]

Functions like full and ones and maybe others don't have positional only arguments in their definition. I wanted to know the reason behind this. https://data-apis.org/array-api/latest/API_specification/creation_functions.html?highlight=positional

This was changed in #167 and stemmed from the following issue: #85.

Thanks, @kgryte! Do you think there should be some detail about this in the official documentation to avoid confusion in the future?

Agreed. We have an open issue to consolidate some of the spec guidance (see #223), and, as part of addressing the concerns described there, can add an explainer regarding exceptions to the general rule.
