  But we have static arg with static default value, just not with that syntax...

  What is the syntax for this, then?

  https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#special-types

  proc draw(x: static[int] = 3) =
    discard
  
  #proc draw(x: static int = 3) =  # alternative syntax
  #  discard
  
  draw[42]() # compiles
  draw()     # compiles too
  Run
