Well, "this" is a newsgroup posting written by you. Nested functions in
Python are callable objects that exist as attributes of other callable
objects, so the two are very different.

Alternatively, if you expect a sensible answer, how about asking a
sensible question? You can start by telling us just what it is that you
are comparing to nested functions.
