IMHO this example reveals a lack of compositionality of the partial functions
we have. If the functions returned optional (to indicate "not defined"), then
code like this would become much simpler to express:
return LOG2_CACHED.apply(a)
.orElse(LOG2_ORIGINAL.apply(a));
It's not just that this is more fluent -- this is also using the caching
function to check whether the input is cached or not -- instead of having a
separate check (potentially duplicating the costs).
