Require parameters in functions

[fregante]

TypeScript is too loose when accepting functions:

type Fn = (a: string) => string;

const fn: Fn = () => '🥲'
// This is fine.

Do you think there's a way to enforce the usage of the a parameter?

I have a situation where a function should only be used if a is required; if a isn't used, it's pointless.

A native example would be this: There's no point in using .some() if you're not going to use the array value inside the callback.

[0,12,345].some(() => true)
