Why do you need both methods? Isn't  GetPlaceholderAvatarIconResourceID just
GetDefaultAvatarIconResourceIDAtIndex(GetPlaceholderAvatarIndex()) ?

Yes, but this removes the need to have those two nested calls in the various
places I need to call them together (which happens multiple times). Should I
remove the helper method?
