I'd prefer if instead of creating a throw away object, we used optional chaining and set/keep the default value to undefined.

Suggested change
Agent.prototype.getName = function getName(options = {}) {
let name = options.host || 'localhost';
Agent.prototype.getName = function getName(options = undefined) {
let name = options?.host || 'localhost';

The option has many attributes, such as port,localAddress, family and so on. It will be more simplify to create a default object than make every attributes with ?.

Depends what you mean by simplify, it's a smaller change in term of source code changes, but it's not simpler for end users. Using a throw away objects also has side effects which could be surprising for them:

// In userland:
Object.prototype.host = 'something unrelated';

// In core:
function getName(options = {}) { return options.host || 'localhost'; }
console.log(getName()); // 'something unrelated'
// In userland:
Object.prototype.host = 'something unrelated';

// In core:
function getName(options = undefined) { return options?.host || 'localhost'; }
console.log(getName()); // 'localhost'

My opinion is that Node.js core modules should use optional chaining over creating a throw away objects, it's not a blocking concern by any mean though. Feel free to disagree, the PR is fine as is.

Thanks for your detailed explanation. But I have seen many default arguments in nodejs is using empty object, I think we can draft another PR to fix it, if it is necessary. :)
