This is because a recent change made the first 2 arguments optional,
but advertised-calling-convention of these functions in subr.el was
not adjusted to that change, and was overriding the effect of the
DEFUN macros, which say the truth: up to 4 arguments, with zero
mandatory ones.

Fixed on the emacs-29 branch.
