Thank you for explaining - I didn't think to click on the thumbnail as I thought the snippet _is_ the expanded thumbnail.

The way I see/read it: it _isn't_ being used in respect to nothing _reads_ it, except within the calculation to raise - there's nothing that reads the result of the raise. It's warning you that you are (potentially) needlessly capturing state. I agree it's a valid warning (for that specific example.)

I appreciate it is just an example to demonstrate the issue but I am unable to deduce a scenario where that wouldn't be a valid warning.
