But would probably be better seen as a set of object methods.** That said, you do not actually need functions (again: ruby is fully functional but does not use them). So yeah, I am advancing the idea that this would be a good way to go here too. Snafuist points out something similar earlier in the thread altho he may not agree with going to such an apparent extreme.
