 * 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.
