I think you've missed the point; this is a blog post by Uncle Bob. Everything he says is profound, right? (No, it's not, but to be fair the parent comment also about people assuming just because someone famous says something, it is necessarily also profound). Also, unrelated... > but if you're looking for something profound at the surface of things then carry on shaving your yaks. Doesn't 'yak shaving' refer to the same thing as 'going down a rabbit hole', 'pulling a piece of yarn', etc? Ie. Looking at something that looks simple and then finding it much deeper and more complicated than you expected? Isn't that... exactly what you're talking about with the syntax? Like, you're literally telling the parent to keep pulling at the syntax comparisons, like oh hey, bet you'll find nothing interesting here... then literally also telling them that it is a rabbit hole when you look at how functions are lists? That makes absolutely no sense to me when you use it in that context.
