What happens if I call a function (maybe not my dumb function above)
with the pair ('$var' => value) - ie the sigil is already in the name of
the pair. Presumably it "just works" for normal function.
So in this case, can I disambiguate things for my dumb function.
And if I call a function
crazy ('$param' => $value, 'param' => $other_value);
presumably that also throws some sort of exception about ambiguity?
