Mathematically, all functions return, instantly. Or rather, mathematics occurs 
in an abstract environment where there is no time. Everything happens 
simultaneously. So even infinite sums or products can be calculated instantly 
-- if they converge.

So, yes, even functions that never return are functions. You just need to 
collapse all of infinite time into a single instant.

git gets easier once you get the basic idea that branches are homeomorphic 
endofunctors mapping submanifolds of a Hilbert space.
