Your position is problematic because your model ignores a fundamental, from perlsub:
<i>The Perl model for function ... return values is simple: ... all functions ... return to their caller one single flat list of scalars.</i>
<p>
<code>lc</code> doesn't return a scalar it returns a one element list.

Be well,
