But then if the 'method' was invoked as a sub from within the class it could potentially have no params, leading to a return value of -1, which would give a false positive.

    Indeed. Just to make sure: I was more brainstorming than stating claims! However this directly leads us to discuss whether it is generally (i.e. with the exclusion of possible corner cases) a good practice to call a method like a sub even from within the same class, which at first sight IMHO is not by any means, but that would bring us too far away and in this moment I'm far too tired to even try to think of it...
