not sure what you mean exactly by system defined keyword but in this case the first parameter that is passed to the event handler is an event object call it king_kamehameha_the_first if you want

evt and e are the same thing, and it's a better practice to keep the names consistent, unlike in here both are event object, and they allow to "convert" user interactions into logic (such as drawing a line) https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_events.asp

@Burey so that means evt and e are system defined keywords
