Good points. Ideally the official review period will have members bring up
these counterpoints again.

SE-0009 also misses another "alternative considered" on this list:
prohibiting "self" outside of capture semantics, however impractical it may
be. Should scheduled proposals, as written, be open to amendment before
review?
