Hi Stephen, Tobias
I think the source of the confusion here is that this syntax doesn't work:

I agree that it's reasonable to expect that syntax to work.
The rationale for the current arrangement is that there is a conscious
layering of wikitext features that progressively provides flexibility at
the expense of complexity:
* At the highest level, we have the basic formatting syntax like ''bold''
and //italic//. This syntax is generally simple MediaWiki- or MarkDown-like
markup.
* Then comes linking and transclusion, with double square brackets and
double braces respectively. Transclusion also introduces the idea of text
references
* Then comes macro invocations with double angle brackets. The syntax here
is still very simple (it's actually the same as TWC), and avoids
complexities like transcluded parameters
* Finally, the base widget level provides the finest degree of control and
flexibility, at the expense of a much more complicated syntax (albeit, it
is based on the familiar syntax for HTML elements)
That's not intended to be an argument for never supporting transcluded
parameters in the basic macro syntax, of course.
Best wishes
Jeremy.
