Anonymous would mean they don't have names, which isn't the case. They
are named, but those names may, or may not, be implicit. Currently, they
aren't handled separately; the parser names any unnamed arguments prior to
calling the template, which has no way of knowing how they were named; to
the template, they're all just named arguments {{t|a|b}} is the same as
{{t|2=b|1=a}} or even {{t|2=a|b}}.
