It requires explression trees implementation and is not a part of
current discussion. And anyway "SQL-like" syntax is not the best way to
do it. Personally I dont like the way it is in C#.

no return type. If it's inferred, why not inferring argument types?

And also try it for, you'll see a problem:

fun boolean p => true;
