Bear in mind, in the cases you refer to, the inner functions should only be allocated once - when the file is loaded.
The issue is when you use this pattern for initialising what are effectively classes. Then every time you use `new`, the functions have to be wrapped again.
Again you are saying the "inner functions should only be allocated once", there is no rule or book in CS that states that as the absolute truth. It is however a concept that would be taught in a typical OO programming class.
Idk where exactly you were taught this, or if you did not read my whole speil about that being memory/cpu tradeoff.
