Recognizing a variable is an argument is very very useful.  It's important

Please expand on this.

Not sure how. I simply find it useful since I was once forced to obey it strictly in a dom code. It simply has its meaning. It helps to orient. I don't know what more you want from me to hear.

I review a lot of code, and can't remember the last
time knowing a var was an arg was useful.
The only exception is 'out-vars', which I believe should be handled as a
different case. (WebGL code generally uses the out_ prefix)
`aFoo` does not discriminate, so it's impossible to tell if assignment to
`aFoo` is local or not without more context.
