Hmm... I didn't see that Elaya has classes or any of the other
paraphernalia of OO. Did I overlook something?

Well, yes. Conceptually, it would be syntactic sugar for a class
consisting of a single routine.
Can be useful. Java uses a similar approach for inner classes (which can
be anonymous), though it is a bit more on the verbose side of the
spectrum.

OK, this answers my question.

Then I'll take a look once the language has evolved further.
