…hello prompt injection attacks :P

I used to think that but it doesn’t work with the closure treatment. The whole point in some sense is to not require distinguishing “closure creation” and “closure invocation”. So if you just say it once, we need to automatic remove the other call… and then we can do it elsewhere.

I don't see it that way at all. I think Handle has value *particularly* when you make it explicit, because otherwise `x.clone()` is quite ambiguous in terms of what it does. You really have to know the type of `x`.

You would be calling `handle` directly though...? Or at least some folks would. I agree with Carl's critique but I couldn't up with a suggestion I liked *more*, and I felt there was definite value in introducing the term "handle".

People need to be able to review but the onboarding costs are much lower. I can understand French surprisingly well but speaking it is much harder.

No, they had no problem at all with the notation. They were very engaged and seemed to follow it completely. They loved finding edge cases to make every statement false (Eg color blindness for “red delicious apples are red”). To be fair I did also give candy for the first answer from any given kid.

Thanks!
