Yes, that's what I referred to. Before 2.7, object&.:method was almost merged (or rather merged and reverted) because Matz had second thoughts about its uglyness... Which is not completely untrue, but not having a concise way for referring to a method is irritating.

That still wouldn't have solved passing additional args, so maybe { object.method_name(_1, args)} is the next best thing. Though it perceives non-atomic due to wrapping block.
