[swift-evolution] [Proposal] Replace thin arrows (->) with fat arrows (=>)

[Radosław Pietruszewski]

I think you’re confusing (or not being clear about) two things: type declarations and closures. `->` means “a function type returning…” in Swift. I believe what you talk about with fat arrows is a syntax for defining closures.

… and do we need a second syntax for closures in Swift?

No.
