# What this teaches:
# • Parameter aliasing — `as` renames function parameters for clarity or disambiguation
# • Import aliasing — also used in `import` contexts for renamed imports
#
# Common mistakes:
# • confusing as (import or parameter alias) with sicut (comparison) or velut (pattern match)
#
# See also: from, args
