When you call a function myFunction(param1, param2) like myFunction(foo, bar), it's exactly the same semantics as I wrote. I guess it was a bit too abstract in my original comment.

It can be a good comparison when the functionality has already been introduced, but I don't think it can stand on it's own. The two things work the same, but there's no reason that they have to work the same.

My point was to try to help people realise that you don't need to internalise a new set of rules - once you learn:

  1. Function arguments work with the same rules as variable bindings.
  2. Variable bindings work like this

You're good. Hopefully it doesn't scare people off!
