That's a good point.

But it took me a moment to understand the `printf(5)` because what printf is is 
very deeply ingrained in me, hence I would not write code like that and wouldn't 
find it acceptable. It's jarring and misleading.

(I used to use clever printf macros in C to alter printf's behavior, but 
eventually removed all that for the same reason.)
