In general, it is my firm opinion that we couldn't program without this knowledge. The stub files back up this assertion, imo, but they also show just how many vars are being passed around. I often split a complex function into pieces, namely helper methods. I'll pass whatever is needed into those helpers. Those arguments clearly must have an intended type, but I quickly forget all about the helpers and their arguments. So the proper workings of helpers depend on "minor" arguments.
