Not necessarily a fan either, but my takeaway from recent discussions on
emacs-devel is that the argument is preferred to called-interactively-p,
which should only be used when a function's arglist is set in stone.

I see a few dozen hits for "&optional \([\w-]+ \)*interactive)" under
lisp/, so it seems to be an established practice.

PS: I've just seen Juri's reponse in bug#45765#26; I'm glad there is a
consensus on the first patch, because after looking at more in-tree
examples of optional INTERACTIVE arguments, I found myself agonizing
over spelling the spec (list nil nil t), '(nil nil t), or "i\ni\np".
