It's none of those, and it's crippled.

People who think that calling one (1, uno) function is a problem
should not be writing any form of applications, because they won't
get very far. Typically you need tens, hundreds, thousands. Raising
sheep may be a better occupation for them.

I will respect the opinions, tastes, and personal preferences of anyone
who demonstrates a minimal amount of engagement, but _not_ of someone who
is so blatantly lazy as you suggest (I don't mean you, but the people you
refer to), and stupid enough to admit it.
