named parameters would help here. otherwise you wind up with a mess of
argument hell. or passing a single array in and then in the function
parsing that for the items (which is what I do, sort of a userland way
of doing named parameters)

but adding more and more parameters to functions over time leads to
issues if they do not have default values and if you have to pass say,
the 6th parameter, but don't need to pass the rest, etc.
