Because BASIC+ is independent of filing systems, the call arguments for filing system subroutines use a standard protocol.  BASIC+ produces the same subroutine call for all filing systems, always using the same arguments.

A READ statement, for example, always produces the same BFS call, regardless of what filing system is actually being accessed by the read logic. By extension, all MFSs must use the same calling conventions.
