I'm of the opinion that string lambdas must go. I started, and I 
really should finish it at some point, removing string lambdas 
from the documentation: https://github.com/dlang/phobos/pull/3800

I think that the drawback you mentioned does not outweigh the 
benefits gained from using actual lambdas.
