Proper call-site elision of uninteresting, should-stay-at-their-defaults
arguments. Better call-site readability because the options in use will be
named explicitly.
I have four or five places in our internal codebase where the
$options-array approach is already used for these reasons, and where we
feel the pain of explicitly managing that that is nicely described in the
RFC.
