Yes, this sounds very reasonable! Thanks for your enlightenment.
No, I really meant _ = some_var. To give the context of my question, I was building a template compiler based on EEX. I’m creating dynamically functions with the following signature MyApp.Module.SubModule.template_name(assigns) out of template files module/sub_module/template_name.eex. When the template doesn’t use the assigns bindings I got a warning saying that assigns is not used. I spent hours trying different things, playing with the @compile directive but the only way I found to get rid of the warning was to actually use assigns by adding at the end of the template <% _ = assigns %>. I was wondering if it generated any kind of overhead, but obviously, it doesn’t
