That's not a one-liner.  That's three lines.  :)

The call itself is indeed only one line, but to prep the args for the 
call requires as many additional lines as there are args.

This is a one-linter:

   doSomething type="chart"  size="100"

That's possible in R, Python, CSS, and others, but not natively in LC.
