Description

**Description of the false positive**

Function/methods wrapped with ``partial`` actually only requires *missing* arguments to be supplied to on-call. The inspection appears to look at the *unwrapped* function, not the partially applied one. Calling the partial with only the missing arguments is thus misreported as supplying too few arguments.
