Cornford's Construct, like Duff's Device or the Muenchian Method. Or, in
the common case where a closure is created, Cornford's Closure.

A function that has an explicit return has different context than one
that simply creates a lexical scope.

A pattern is a reusable solution a contextual problem.

A function that does not return a value creates a lexical scope returns
undefined. It can thus be thought of as a void function and so for that,
perhaps Cornvoid is a more suitable name than Cornify. But Cornvoid does
not roll off the tongue well. Maybe Cornhole?

I think we're definitely on the right track... now all it needs is a
few more syllables to jazz it up.

Perhaps (n.) Cornforfication and (v.) Cornforify?

Is there are proofread version of this available?
