This is *real* progress, even if under the hood all it does is wrap
functions and use function type-hints.  This piece of code is SO much
shorter and cleaner.  Will it be a bit confusing to new developers?
Maybe, but I don't care. It is not aimed at making the lives of new
developers easy; it's designed to make the lives of those who know
about it easy.  In any case, this is such an enhancement that I don't
think it would take very long before there would be plenty of
tutorials out there to help the beginners anyway.
