I canât say this right but I want to say something along the lines that
âviaâ puts emphasis on the access to a function rather than the means to
function or the function. In an instruction, there is the how and there
is the what, and then there is how the how gets to the what. I canât
find the right way to say this. My point is that via puts (or can put)
the emphasis in the wrong part of the instruction.
