Hence the "pure" closure paradigm does not need object-orientation.
For my feeling it is prone to introduce some contradiction to
object-orientation and maybe such a paradigm seems not very appropriate
in an object language.
Maybe a definition of a closure/anonymous-like construct with respect to
objects might be invented, that auto-creates an instance of some
object-type that inherits a "Closure" (or "Execute") procedure that
automatically performs a free when returning.
(In that light "TThread" is a closure-Type object, as with
"FreeOnTerminate = True" "Execute" is a kind of closure. :-) )
