+ * How do these macros work?
+ *
+ * In __COUNT_ARGS() _0 to _12 are just placeholders from the start
+ * in order to make sure _n is positioned over the correct number
+ * from 12 to 0 (depending on X, which is a variadic argument list).
+ * They serve no purpose other than occupying a position. Since each
+ * macro parameter must have a distinct identifier, those identifiers
+ * are as good as any.
+ *
+ * In COUNT_ARGS() we use actual integers, so __COUNT_ARGS() returns
+ * that as _n.
