Question: timelimit expects 2 arguments, but received 1

Question:timelimit expects 2 arguments, but received 1

why does Maple say that timelimit got one argument when doing

timelimit(30,solve(x^2+a=0,x) assuming a>0)

There is clearly 2 arguments in the above, The first is 30 and the second argument is solve(x^2+a=0,x) assuming a>0

I know the workaround is to add [ ] around solve(). 

timelimit(30, [solve(x^2+a=0,x) assuming a>0])
