gfldex, I see you've edited the second EXPORT example, but to me it's made it much less clear what's going on.
I'm not happy with that example myself and intend to change it.
I see where you are going, trying to show that the power of ::T type captures can still be used in EXPORT, but I think we should leave that up to the imagination of the user.
I do not agree with the notion "Let's not tell them!". The whole point of a documentation is to save the person who reads it time. This is one bug report out of 5 related to EXPORT and/or type captures. It took me about 6 hours to find all the bits that work/don't work and led to the following blog post [1]. Let's assume that in the course of the next year alone 100 brave souls (likely a low figure) read that section of the doc. That's 600 manhours that could be spend more productive. The whole point of Perl 6 is to let programmers be more lazy. Productive! Productive I mean!
