(_`2` + 0)(1, 2, 3) // returns 1 about babel-plugin-partial-application HOT 3 CLOSED

This is because currently, positional placeholders work as a sorted arg list. So if there's nothing before this positional placeholder it just becomes the lone argument. I can see how this might be unexpected.

It could change so that unused arguments are added to fill gaps. But right now you can start at any number, which kind of allows for both _`0` and _`1` to mean the first argument. ( zero-based vs. one-based indexing ). We'd probably have to pick either 0 or 1 along with this change.

Oh i understand now.

I still think it would be more intuitive if (_`2` + 0)(1, 2, 3) would return 3.

@plexigras Just FYI I've deprecated this package in favor of param.macro which is a little more focused and won't have the positional placeholder feature. I'll close this since I (personally) won't be making anything but critical fixes to this project.
