I don't actually know.  But if I had to guess, I would say it is because
providing wrappers ensures you can't pass in some forms of nonsense.

If you really want to do it, and nobody objects, then I guess I don't
care all that much.  This whole API seems a bit nuts, any time you have
13 arguments you should just assume you've done something wrong already.

I do care about not exporting a function named "break_command_really"
though.
