If you're calling this across translation units, the calling convention will come with a performance penalty, but boy have we come full circle since pre-ANSI C required you to pass args as a struct. Much love - wish the language required struct and arg list to be the same thing. You can send a list of em and it'll work with algebraic data types for batching calls. The dream. CPU doesn't play nice though since structs aren't register shaped, but maybe they could be in a future calling convention.
