Line 237: :First, "a function that is stored as data (a reference)" is nonsense. Either you pass a function itself, or you pass a reference to the function; both are possible, but they are not the same thing. :Second, what is this "original abstraction layer" doing there? Callbacks are simply a mechanism; they may or may not be used to create an abstraction layer of some kind, but no such layer needs to exist for a callback to be created. :This is much like starting an article on ''Apple'' with the sentence: ''an apple is a fruit that is stored as organic matter (a word) and designed to be eaten by man - ~~often~~notably, asin ~~part~~the creation of original sin''. No, sir or madam, either you pass an apple or you pass the word "apple", but they are not the same thing; and while passing an apple was part of the creation of original sin, apples exist completely separately from it and there is no need to mention it in the first sentence on apples.
