I don't think it's "bad" coding. Documentation generated from this
signature might be a bit clearer than documentation generated from a
signature where the argument was, e.g., "nameValue", since it would be
more immediately obvious that the argument "name" corresponds to the
property "name". That said, the code itself is clearer the other way.
Six of one and half a dozen of the other. (Programming is so often like
that.)
