hmmmm, going to have to re-read "10.3. Validating References with Lifetimes" a few more times to grok it. in the first example set, the problem lifetimes is aimed at solving looks to me like an artifact of the language avoiding using an explicit return statement.
either I am missing something and later sections of this chapter will clarify, or this is really just a way to overcome a logical ambiguity problem which the language itself has introduced.
