Yeah. I didn't understand what they meant by the wtf there. Seemed to me someone wondered if the Action would have a localised version of i (making this stay lowercase on a phone was harder than it should be) or if it used the same i. So made a simple test for it.
Not really sure it's a wtf unless they expected a different result.
I think the explanation they provide is a bit lacking as well. Defining an anonymous function doesn't "create a reference" to any variables it uses, it captures the scope in which it was defined and retains existing references.
