An interesting take on arg label/name, granted this is including destructuring 
of obj literals (so one level down from the method sig, but which is not 
without analogy to what could be done to tuples with named fields). The main 
point of comparison is what the type of f1 and f2 are. 

This is in typescript, where the signatures ultimately have to translate down 
to javascript where everything maps to 
f(p,q,r,s,t) {
  var p1 = arguments.0; // is p or this
   ...
}
last week i was back to writing lots of ts 1.8 code and i find the type system 
incredibly precise and flexible (P|Q... yeah)

// Type of f1 is (arg?: { x?: number, y?: number }) => void 
function f1({ x = 0, y = 0 } = {}) { } 

// And can be called as: 
f1(); 
f1({}); 
f1({ x: 1 }); 
f1({ y: 1 }); 
f1({ x: 1, y: 1 }); 

// Type of f2 is (arg?: (x: number, y?: number) => void 
function f2({ x, y = 0 } = { x: 0 }) { } 
f2(); 
f2({});                 // Error, x not optional 
f2({ x: 1 }); 
f2({ y: 1 });          // Error, x not optional 
f2({ x: 1, y: 1 });
