"Second arg SHOW-ARGS means to include arguments of FORM in message."
 
How so?  Which values of SHOW-ARGS mean that?

And what on earth are the "arguments" of FORM?  FORM is presumably a sexp, which
is evaluated and returns nil or non-nil.  A sexp does not have "arguments".

It's not at all clear what you mean here.
