Pass an object or positioned arguments to a function

It's now possible to destructure function parameters like so:

function add({a, b}) { return a + b; }

Which can be called like this:

add({a: 5, b: 9});

Is it also possible to combine that with positional arguments so it can also be called without naming the arguments. E.g.:

add(5, 9);

You can use the rest parameter, and destructure it according to it's length.

function add(...args) {
  let a, b;
  
  args.length === 1 ? ({ a, b } = args[0]) : [a, b] = args;
  
  return a + b;
};

console.log(add({a: 5, b: 9}));
console.log(add(5, 9));
