This might not stay valid code when we put more control for dispatch, argument recognition etc.
Some of that is in place with Rcpp::is, the rest will follow. We might lose things like this, but we will gain more useful things instead. And we never said passing 0 arguments to a function needing one works, so it is not a documented feature.
