in thread [Perl 6 S02] Capture and Signature Basics

It sounds like most of my questions that are not wrong docs are forward references. It would be helpful if such forward references were marked and worked as links. In the feather copy I downloaded, many of the hrefs within a document don't even work!

I guess the docs are in need of a fresh pair of eyes, as I'm finding all the relics. I've seen other inconsistent terminology, such as "item context" which seems to be the norm in S03. S02 has it in a few places but uses the familiar "scalar context" mostly, and defines, "# Perl still has the three main contexts: void, scalar, and list."
