Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:8 boonebgorges]:
 > I'd spell out the principle as follows:
 >
 > 1. If a function accepts arguments that are passed through, without
 modification, to another function, then those arguments should not be
 documented on the wrapper function, but there should be a reference along
 the lines of `See get_terms()` in the description of `$args`.
 > 2. The wrapper function should fully document arguments that (a) are not
 passed through at all (such as `$title_li`) or (b) are modified or play a
 special role in the wrapper (such as `$exclude_tree`).

 For reference, this was previously discussed in #41058, specifically
 comment:8:ticket:41058.
