You can bundle them and output from the VI as a single cluster; then you can Unbundle by Name which makes the using code very readable. If you need to change a parameter you can simply type in the new value and you don't have to remember to Make Current Values Default. You stated you would never write to the global programmatically. Using this technique it would be impossible to write the parameter values programmatically, so it would be immediately clear to anyone else who looked at your code that the parameters were not being written programmatically.
