Hi there! Might be a naive question.

Why don't we treat all local captures as external? Like at compile time, if 
it's possible, we could treat *&fun/0* as *&__MODULE__.fun/0* and get a 
free performance boost, if in the end they behave same.

I was going thought the docs for :telemetry.attach/4 
<https://hexdocs.pm/telemetry/1.2.1/telemetry.html#attach/4> and the 
suggestion to avoid using *local* captures raise that thought.

If that's not possible, does it make sense to add a note in the docs 
Kernel.SpecialForms.&/1 
# Capture 
<https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/1.16.2/Kernel.SpecialForms.html#&/1-capture> about 
the performance implications of local capture vs external or a 
recommendation?

Thanks.
