it will be (already is) a common mistake to use by instead of .by etc, but to be "safe" with eat as we're supposed to AND stay consistent with dplyrs on other functions we don't have the choice.

By checking the parameters passed to ... only if it fails we can ask the user if he really meant to input what he did.
