gollark: mildly nicer.
gollark: This would be mk
gollark: You could have a single `f: &dyn Fn(u64, u64) -> Option<u64>`.
gollark: `f:&dyn Fn(u64,u64)->u64, cond:&dyn Fn(u64, u64)->bool` - this is not very idiomatic, consider using `Option`.
gollark: Rust lets you `move` stuff, I don't think it allows much specificity.
