In the below example (playground gist), mypy behaves differently with respect to **kwargs:
def func(x: bool = False, **kwargs):
print(x, kwargs)
# This is accepted by mypy.
func(y="y")
# This is flagged by mypy.
data = {"y": "y"}
func(**data)
The error is Argument 1 to "func" has incompatible type "**dict[str, str]"; expected "bool" [arg-type]. This is incorrect because the function has **kwargs, so the dict / function call should be considered type correct.
