This function only peforms a lifted value-and-grad operation with respect to the arguments of a function, and does not try to calculate gradients with respect to any variables. This mirrors the behavior of the haiku grad function, and also easily works in the multi-scope setting (external modules passed in) while avoiding the complexities associated with that case for a more general vjp.
