On Puppet 4.4.1

I ran the following: 

class testingclass(
  $cmd_path = 'PluginDir',
){
  $message_ntfy = "cmd_path is set to: ${cmd_path} for ${name}"
  notify { $message_ntfy: }
}


define testingdefine(
  $cmd_path = 'PluginDir',
){
  $message_ntfy = "cmd_path is set to: ${cmd_path} for ${name}"
  notify { $message_ntfy: }
}


node default {


  class {'testingclass':
    cmd_path => undef,
  }


 testingdefine { 'testingdefinedefaults': }
 testingdefine { 'testingdefineundef':
  cmd_path => undef,
 }
}

I expect cmd_path to be set to undef for the class and testingdefineundef. 
Instead it looks like all three end up with the same value for cmd_path: 

erik.anderson@puppetmaster1:~$ sudo puppet apply test.pp

Any ideas on why it is behaving this way and is it intentional?
