No, that's a bug in the called code. The API here defines
that for optional parameters, if the have_foo bool is false
then the foo argument isn't set. The generated code
can't know the correct default value (it just happens
to be 0 in the case you point out, but what if the default
speed were 100?) so this must be handled by the called
code.
