I answer myself, I see that only positional arguments support multiple dispatch (see e.g. [this discussion](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/multiple-dispatch-usage-with-named-arguments/29666).

Any plan to add multiple dispatch also to keyword arguments? To a profane seems odd (yes, I know that for sure there is some reason for that… just it is not something expected)
