Comment (by scribu):

 I think nacin's implicit objection is this:

 Adding a $data parameter to get_template_part() is wrong because it mixes
 two ways of "templating":

 1) The "WordPress" way, where you call the_title(), the_content() etc. +
 globals like $wp_query.

 2) The "bare-bones" way, where you pass an array of data, which gets
 converted into some variables:

 {{{
 function wp_load_template( $path, $data ) {
   extract( $data );
   include $path;
 }
 }}}
