If it is your stance that they can have no value, ...

To exclude possibility is to limit oneself, to blindly accept is to subjugate ones mind, to explore is to learn.

I'll just point out that I said: "There *is* utility in using named parameters for sub/methods that (usefully) take large numbers of optional parameters..

There is a product called PowerKeeper that implements a ... the AddSystem API ... There are 47 options

And that "47 options" is as close to the perfect fit for "take large numbers of optional parameters." as I have ever seen.


Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
