The rules/semantics proposed in this RFC are not new. These are
validation rules applied to function arguments (see
https://3v4l.org/WQJPv#vnull). This is nothing new, and it doesn't use
exotic syntax, but rather a standard type declaration. For this
reason, and given the complexity that it would add (even more) to the
language, adding new syntax does not seem to me to be the right
approach: these behaviors already exist with existing syntax that is
well known to everyone.
