Why build_datastore with no arguments?

[futureal]

The ones I was thinking of were all in the includes/functions.php file, which is also where the build_datastore(title, data) function is defined. I am fairly sure that they are calling that function.

I don't see any in functions.php, except the function definition.

From a quick grep, it's class_bitfield_builder.php that has a build_datastore with no parameters.

Note, I only checked 3.5 beta2

I haven't taken a look at 3.5 yet, I am only talking 3.0.x here. There really probably is no reason for its existence, especially if they removed those calls in 3.5. Okay, where are the 3.0 devs...?

in 3.5 the dev make use of oop more often, so there it might make differences, but in 3.0.x the call without parameters is doing nothing.

let's wait until a dev comes by ^^
