How can we just "leave it the way it is", when the LRM claims that
SystemVerilog has pass-by-name semantics? The reason the proposal
does not change all references to "argument passing" is that they
are not all wrong. The argument passing in SystemVerilog can be
by value, by value-result, or by reference. The argument binding can
be by position or by name.
