title: What is the purpose of commenting out function argument names?
body: <p>I'm working with this sdk that generates a skeleton plugin project, as in, all the functions required by the host application are there, just not filled.</p>
  
  <p>Initially, all the function definitions are sorta like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>void Mod1::ModifyObject(TimeValue /*t*/, ModContext&amp; /*mc*/, ObjectState* /*os*/, INode* /*node*/) {}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>With the argument names commented out, why is that? As far as I can tell, if I'm not using the arguments, it makes no difference whether the names are there or not.</p>
