Seems reasonable on the surface. My main question is how far that extends.
Does it work *only* for Closure::fromCallable()/FCC syntax? What if the
argument is not a string? How deep does the comparison go for, say, objects
and methods?
class C {
public function beep(string $a): string { return $a . 'beep'; }
}
$c1 = new C();
$c2 = new C();
$strlen1 = Closure::fromCallable([$c1, 'beep']);
$strlen1b = Closure::fromCallable([$c1, 'beep']);
$strlen2 = Closure::fromCallable([$c2, 'beep']);
// What do these do?
var_dump($strlen1 == $strlen1b);
var_dump($strlen1 == $strlen2);
