Recently I end up using structs everywhere as functions parameters to basically get named function parameters and better default arguments. Are there any downsides to this? So far the only annoying thing is to have to define those structs.

struct FunParams{
    int i = 5;
    float f = 3.14f;
    std::string s = "hello";
};

void Fun(const FunParams& params){}

int main(){
    Fun({.s = "hi there"});
}

It is possible if they are added as regular function parameters before the struct parameter but somehow I find that a bit ugly..
