Closures aren't going to be understood

As a dev, I know what closures are - not all devs do though...

In looking at the Blender 5 closure node in geometry nodes - I didn't get an intuitive feel for it even though I understand closures in programming.

I think it needs some rename or maybe a lot of examples - not intuitive - not to me anyways.

There always is the manual and there will be hundrets of tutorials. The Function of clusures is needed for Simulation nodes and similar things.

I think when we have the first Simulation nodes implemented and some node groups bundeld with blender it will be clear to most people. Here its explained in more detail code.blender.org/2025/08/bundles-and-closures/

I thnk in some situations you dont even need to understand it to use it.
