Or maybe more general notions, such as "define a recursive datatype together with a catamorphism combinator" or even "embed a domain-specific language via combinators over an ADT" There are patterns of that sort in our programs, which we would probably rather call design techniques, which aren't so easily captured by a higher-order function definition.
