The argument of the "func" command is a function name, not an
expression.  You are passing a variable, which is an expression.

There is a trick you can use: Assign the function reference to a global
variable.  Function names exist in the global namespace where the global
variable can also be found:

         def g:LambdaText(Op: func(): number): void
             g:ThatFunction = Op
             func g:ThatFunction
             unlet g:ThatFunction
         enddef
