Would the following be simpler...?
sub hidden (str $name, int $force is aka($override))
{ ... }
Damian's statement says to me that there is an argument named $force, and
another argument named $override which is also known as $force... that
sounds conflicting. The revised statement simply says that there's an
argument named $force and it is also known as $override.
BTW, the aka thing is cool. It could be complementary to "is named":
# can't use force_tainted as argument:
sub hidden (int $force_tainted is named($force))
# can use force_tainted as argument:
sub hidden (int $force_tainted is aka($force))
