Well my use case is for something I can insert into an existing function,
in fact, a lot of functions, hopefully without manually listing the
arguments.
```js
function bar( parameters ) {
for ( var i = 0; i < parameters.length; i++ ) {
// do something interesting with each parameter of the function
}
}
function foo( a, b = 2 ) {
bar( parameters );
// do normal foo stuff
}
```
Thinking about it I can't see how Reflect could do this, because it's
surely meant to be external to the function. For example with an imaginary
Reflect.getParameters:
```js
Reflect.getParameters( foo ) // could only give me [ a: undefined, b: 2 ]
as reflect can't know what foo was called with from outside the function.
```
