I believe it's simpler to say that call-next-method works anywhere in a
method than to say it only works some places in a method, thus having to
say that if you use it in argument defaulting, you have to do the
argument defaulting a different way than you would ordinarily do it.
Of course it is simpler to say that call-next-method works anywhere in a
method. An example will be make clear the fact that CALL-NEXT-METHOD
without arguments uses the method arguments, not its parameters.
Patrick.
