Please don't try to use fancy terms to impress. That's not what destructuring is.

Why so negative, I’ve had this thought before and found it reassuring that I’m not the only one.

That does, in fact, appear to be a nearly textbook example of JavaScript object destructuring. See the Mozilla Developer reference site[0], specifically the "Unpacking fields from objects passed as a function parameter" section.
