Sometimes being able to use closures enables you to experiment with code
in certain ways that lead you to come up with solutions to problems you
didn't think you could solve.

Without closures, sure, the solution is still expressible, but you might
not have ever come up with it.

It's the thing about good notation making the mathematical discoveries
even possible, even though the mathematical truths are not dependent on
the notation we adopt.
