I don't care that it's a local function calling a local function, if I use your library as a dependency, I still need to be able to read it and understand what it does

One thing that annoys me about Erlang so far is the tendency to treat state as an opaque, type-less blob passed through a ton of disparate functions

Do I know anyone who's camped around London? Thinking of feasibility of walking the Capital Ring Walk with a backpack. (I do know you can get a fine for camping in the wild, not wild about camping in people's gardens in the current situation.)
