The point is that they're only "very simple" if you
can write them using access to an outer scope. Without
that ability, they become less simple, less efficient,
more convoluted, harder to follow, etc.

Also I don't buy the argument that something has to
be useful for big, complicated things in order to be
worth having in the language.
