Thank you, and yeah, I didn't even think about that aspect of it too, but you're right. I think the reason it's a popular formulation of the semantic is that it's kind of like, trying to describe it from a statement-oriented viewpoint, and there's certainly value in trying to help bridge an understanding gap by relating it to things that you know. But I worry that it either gives the wrong impression (heck I would hate true "implicit returns" too!) or that people tend to stop there as opposed to truly making the mental shift. This stuff is hard!
