We shouldn't. The compiler will do the right thing. This is for the human
reader. You tell the reader that you want.

a) a clean slate to start with
b) you issue a command with certain parameters specified. That these
parameters are zero is beside the point. The point is telling the reader
which parameters are important here.

PS: What about endianness of bcbw->Length?
