useless arguments are the norm.

Speaking as someone who has been a Windows developer for 25 years, it 
absolutely *does* happen in the Windows ecosystem.

To offer a small subset of examples. In fact, since you specifically mentioned

neither of them implemented a portion of the Win32 spec that was a superset of 
what the other did.
