I'm still interested in seeing an example that you would normally write 
with free variables, demonstrating that lambdas are inadequate for the 
things you'd like to do.  The example you provided of summing integers 
has two alternatives, so it only serves to show that free variables are 
not possible, not that free variables are necessary.

Can you contrive something more sophisticated, as an exercise?
