 30   * Specify a (method, idx, name, format) here if the argument is a non-string RPC
 31   * argument and needs to be converted from JSON, or if it is a string argument
 32   * passed to a method that accepts '=' characters in any string arguments.
 33   *
 34   * JSON parameters need to be listed here to make bitcoin-cli parse command line
 35   * arguments as JSON, instead of passing them as raw strings. `JSON` and
 36   * `JSON_OR_STRING` formats both make `bitcoin-cli` attempt to parse the
 37   * argument as JSON. But if parsing fails, the former triggers an error while
 38   * the latter falls back to passing the argument as a raw string. This is
 39   * useful for arguments like hash_or_height, allowing invocations such as
 40   * `bitcoin-cli getblockstats <hash>` without needing to quote the hash string
 41   * as JSON (`'"<hash>"'`).
 42   *
 43   * String parameters that may contain an '=' character (e.g. base64 strings,
 44   * filenames, or labels) need to be listed here with format `ParamFormat::STRING`
 45   * to make bitcoin-cli treat them as positional parameters when `-named` is used.
 46   * This prevents `bitcoin-cli` from splitting strings like "my=wallet" into a named
 47   * argument "my" and value "wallet" when the whole string is intended to be a
 48   * single positional argument. And if one string parameter is listed for a method,
 49   * other string parameters for that method need to be listed as well so bitcoin-cli
 50   * does not make the opposite mistake and pass other arguments by position instead of
 51   * name because it does not recognize their names. See \ref RPCConvertNamedValues
 52   * for more information on how named and positional arguments are distinguished with
 53   * -named.
 54   *
 55   * @note Parameter indexes start from 0.

449   * The -named syntax accepts named arguments in NAME=VALUE format, as well as
450   * positional arguments without names. The syntax is inherently ambiguous if
451   * names are omitted and values contain '=', so a heuristic is used to
452   * disambiguate:
453   *
454   * - Arguments that do not contain '=' are treated as positional parameters.
455   *
456   * - Arguments that do contain '=' are assumed to be named parameters in
457   *   NAME=VALUE format except for two special cases:
458   *
459   *   1. The case where NAME is not a known parameter name, and the next
460   *      positional parameter requires a JSON value, and the argument parses as
461   *      JSON. E.g. ["list", "with", "="].
462   *
463   *   2. The case where NAME is not a known parameter name and the next
464   *      positional parameter requires a string value. E.g. "my=wallet".
465   *
466   * For example, the command `bitcoin-cli -named createwallet "my=wallet"`,
467   * the parser initially sees "my=wallet" and attempts to process it as a
468   * parameter named "my". When it finds that "my" is not a valid named parameter
469   * parameter for this method, it falls back to checking the rule for the
470   * next available positional parameter (index 0). Because it finds the rule
471   * that this parameter is a ParamFormat::STRING, it correctly treats the entire
472   * "my=wallet" as a single positional string, successfully creating a
473   * wallet with that literal name.
