As someone who occasionally has to look up if the 3rd argument to

something I've been using for years. Forget about synthetic keyboard
events

event.initKeyEvent("keypress", true, true, null, null, false, false,
false, false, 9, 0);
This is showing exactly my point: the null, 9 and 0 arguments are just as
mysterious as the boolean arguments. It's hard to understand because
there
are too many arguments, not because they're boolean.
Yes, synthetic keypress have multiple problems--which is why we all use
libraries to not have to author them by hand.
Regardless, this doesn't change the fact that
window.URL.createObjectURL(file, true) is more opaque (and for me, harder
to remember) than:
window.URL.createObjectURL(file, {oneTimeOnly: true})
or something magical like window.URL.createObjectURL(file).oneTimeOnly()
