Fix issue with required optional parameters

Editor assessment

The subject says an issue with required optional parameters was fixed, a paradoxical phrase that does carry meaning to those who know parameters can be flagged optional yet enforced as required, but which reads as a contradiction at first pass. The fix type is accurate, and no scope is given even though core or nodes-base is identifiable. No body exists, which is where the explanation of the misclassification belonged, since the reader cannot learn the actual defect without the diff. The PR reference is well formed. Understandable with a double take: mediocre rather than good.
