"flattening": concatenating all the children recursively.

"argument unpacking"/"expansion": filling in the actual parameters

Anyway, auto-flattening is undesirable as it makes the language 
more weakly typed and hides what goes on. And it gets in the way 
for structural pattern matching. But those issues are off-topic, 
I guess.
