Do we consider both contexts (list assignment skipping and parameter skipping) as assignments? If so, then the consistency arguments seems very strong to me. Only point against the consistency path is that in the context of list() the blank identifier is used to discard a value, while on parameter skipping the blank identifier inherits a previously declared value.
