That one is fixable in user space and I have done so. I keep musing on
getting my colour () module to also address "grey".

Center, sadly, isn't fixed as easily and it's a shame that (say)
cylinder can cope with many combinations or r, d, r1, r2, d1, d2 but not
centre as well as centre.

Oh, and the other one I'd love to fix is cylinder wanting "h" for height
and linear_extrude wanting "height". I have so many 100mm
linear_extrudes on my 1st pass.

Seems like you could make a wrapper:

Not in Gadgetmind case:

module cylinder(r, h ,  centre) {
cylinder(r, h, center=centre) ;
}

would be a improper recursive module.

Yes that is the problem when overriding built in modules you can't use the
original. With cylinder you have to construct it yourself and use
polyhedron. Not to mention handling r, r1, r2, d , d1, d2, etc.

This will solve that problem :) :)

module cylindre(r, h ,  centre) {
cylinder(r, h, center=centre) ;
}

Would it be too hard to allow calling the original (or next scope level
down) module? Ala Lisp, Forth etc.

Can you do that with nested use<> ?

Why yes you can smart Sir.

---==========
use <_originals.scad> // has _cube()

module cube(size=[1,1,1],centre=false)
_cube(size=size,center=centre);

color("red") cube(1, centre=true);
translate([2,0,0]) color("blue") _cube(1);
