But that's only true for the variables which are explicitly destructured in the function definition, which in my experience many are not - they're often later picked out of an ":as args" argument, perhaps dependent on a combination of the parameters which are explicitly destructured. Seesaw never does this, for example. I think it's dangerous to rely on this rather than the documentation since it's often an incomplete view of what the function requires.
