I'm not sure just the keyword (`fn`) should indicate the change in
variables scope handling (auto-capturing). Note that in Javascript it is
a new syntax not just the keyword.
Looks like a counter-proposal could be this syntax:
$foo = function($a, $b) => {
$val = $a * $b;
return $val * c;
}
then whether it is `fn` or `function` keyword does not really matter.
Here it is `=>` that indicates the auto-capturing in the block on the
right side.
I don't know. Another approach might be something that makes mind to
think this is something different than a function. A completely new
keyword that makes the code block to auto-capture. E.g. `procedure` or
`macro`.
