I don't really understand this comment. My understanding of lambdas is that it creates an object of a unique class with overloaded `operator()` and member variables for the captures.
If the captures are template-dependent, then the list of implicit captures isn't real because the type hasn't been fully resolved yet.
But wouldn't that also mean the `operator()` isn't resolved yet either? Why would the deduction not occur for member variables but already occur for member functions?
