It's more than just that -- you can, for instance, use arrayLen() and
structCount() on ARGUMENTS [to maintain backwards compatibility for the
original UDFs -- a decision we all have to live with].
I still don't understand the point of that in relation to this
discussion, however -- Sean, surely you are not saying the different
behaviors of structCount() in CF6 and CF7 is "expected behavior"??

I think he's talking about the 'arguments' scope in particular, as it
has weird quirks that aren't exhibited by any other CF scopes (i.e.
the ability to dereference like an array). StructKeyExists is still
the proper way to test for an optional argument; in that sense
treating arguments like a struct is the proper thing to do. Just
don't necessarily expect it to ALWAYS behave exactly like a "real"
struct.
So then the arguments scope is sort of like a query (which I know
isn't a scope, per se) where you can sometimes use array notation and
sometimes use structure notation to access its members?
Just curious.
