Considering you can overload like this:

functioname(arg1 int, arg2 int)
functioname(arg1 text, arg2 bigint)

and so on, parameter count won't get you out of it.

Why avoiding overloading? You could put arg/count info in the name,
then they'd be uniquely named and obvious for what they do, if
awkwardly named.
