17 ECMAScript Standard Built-in Objects
---
Every built-in Function object, including constructors, has a length property whose value is an integer.
Unless otherwise specified, this value is equal to the largest number of named arguments shown in the
subclause headings for the function description, including optional parameters. However, rest parameters
shown using the form “...name” are not included in the default argument count.
---


For example 25.4.1.3.1 Promise Reject Functions and 25.4.1.3.2 Promise Resolve Functions don't have a subclause heading displaying the number of arguments.
