Sorry, misunderstanding on my part. That one looks fine. I thought
we're talking about translating the number to words, which wouldn't
make any sense:

  \define[3]\foo{#one, #two, #three}

I still don't think it's necessary to use named parameters with
\define. For modules most likely \def, \setvalue or texdefinition
are being used and \define for in-document markup, wherefore
numbered parameters are perfectly fine. The only thing that could be
improved is a definition which doesn't interfere with \asciimode,
but that's low priority and can easily be worked around.
