Hello folks!
I just not understand why "function" should be abbreviated. It's about "how
less character better"? I don't see it too much on PHP. I guess that is
more simple keep what exists current "function", that all knows about (that
should be better than the next example):

$mapped = array_map(function($x) => $x + $y); // vs current:
$mapped = array_map(function($x) use($y) { return $x + $y });

Or even, I too don't know why just ($x) => is an issue. There some possible
conflict why that?
