You'd have to examine the surrounding context

Great questions, which I do not yet know the answer to :)
As I said, "in the middle of writing."

And yet, it does not invalidate my original point which is

    1. Write whatever you know at the time you declare the function
    2. Use extraction tools to generate a reference that accompanies
        exposition (but does not attempt to replace it).
