It sounds like you’re debugging 64-bit Intel code, where this is an artefact of that architecture’s calling conventions. The first 6 parameters go into registers (rdi, rsi, rdx, rcx, r8, and r9) and any subsequent parameters get pushed on the stack. The $argX syntax is a shorthand for accessing those registers. It’s not capable of looking at the stack.
