You are wrong. We can use n1 for the second parameter.
int someNumber(int a, int b)

     return (n1.someNumber = n1); // 10

In this specific case, yes - however:

int getResult(int a, int b, int c)
{
    return(a * 2 - b * 3 + c * 4);
}
int main()
{
   int n1 = 3, n2 = 5, n3 = 7;
   // If one needs to chain n3,
   // but requires it to be entered
   // as the third argument?
   return(n3.getResult(n1, n2)); // `n3` is the `a`
   return(n3.getResult = tuple(n1, n2)[]); // still `a`
}

Being able to specify the position would help maintain 'the 
chain' intact.
