Comment (by Iceland_jack):

 Lambda motivation

 {{{#!hs
 -- phoas :: Phoas v (x -> y -> x)
 -- phoas = PLam (\x -> PLam (\y -> PVar x))

 phoas :: Phoas v (x -> y -> x)
 phoas = PLam \x -> PLam \y -> PVar x
 }}}

 {{{#!hs
 -- ex = λ (\x -> λ (\y -> x))

 ex = λ \x -> λ \y -> x
 }}}

 Would this parse?

 {{{#!hs
 ex = λ\ x -> λ\ y -> x
 }}}
