Wow. (Just think of all the times you write a function containing a

I am surprised that this surprises you, and equally surprised that you
seem to think it's going to be in some way grossly inefficient.
Steven D'Aprano's reply suggests there /is/ some inefficiency which is
why [according to him] nested functions are rarely used that way.
