Title: [#1336] Describe guides for default arguments.

Problem description
===================

Mutable default arguments are initialized using None and then assigned an default value.

In this case it is acceptable to re-write input arguments... since they don't really exist.

Changes description

Add initial text to describe this pattern.

How to try and test the changes
===============================
