sometimes I hit the need of using a parameter for a string format more than once:
put '$result = format("{}/{}/{}_{}.ext", $param1, $param2, $param1, $param3)'
it would be shorter and less error prone (when updating the parameters) to be able to refer to the different parameters from the format string. Something like:
put '$result = format("{1}/{2}/{1}_{3}.ext", $param1, $param2, $param3)'
This is just some syntactic sugar to avoid typing, but not a need. If you decide to follow this path, you can also consider more goodies like the ones that some other languages have: use that string inside the "{}" to also define the format to be given to the parameter being substituted. This could be a rabbit hole, so take care if following this path :-)
