The only difference that I can see is that you'd use kwargs.pop instead of kwargs.get. get returns the value and leaves the key in the dictionary, whereas pop removes the key and returns the value. With running the setattr loop afterwards, it would be a bit redundant.

Honestly your code for what it does would be simplest to just remove lines 3, 4 and 5. It should do the same thing.
