Imagine that some table entry needs to be initialized with a
non-constant, a variable which value needs to be simply copied... Having
function feels just more flexible...

If there are no non-constant variables to be transfered:-)

Or have versioning information embedded into the name, e.g.
get_link_table_v1. But one way or another the answer is "absolutely!"
The code appearing in previous mail was just a dummy example. A.
