 Replying to [comment:9 henry.wright]:
 > I disagree with `_doing_it_wrong`. My reasoning is the argument is
 **optional**. Optional indicates the function should be callable without
 passing a third argument

 You're right, but, **Optional** doesn't not mean ~~always~~. So it's the
 responsibility of developer who is calling the function to know in which
 context, he is, and do things accordingly. I think doing_it_wrong is
 accurate.
