grammar police: do not hyphenate compound words that act as adjectives if the
first word ends in -ly i.e., fully-qualified, newly-created, globally-visible, etc. are wrong

There is no way for printf to know the size of each argument passed. If
you use positional arguments you must ensure that all parameters, up to the
-last positionally-specified parameter, are used in the format string. This
+last positionally specified parameter, are used in the format string. This
allows for the format string to be parsed for this information. Failure
to do this will mean your code is non-portable and liable to fail.
