Is it impossible to assign a function of an instance to a variable for convenience? If so, why?
For example,
local GET = game:GetService("HttpService").GetAsync
local response = GET("https://example.com")
ends up with this error:
Expected ':' not '.' calling member function GetAsync

You misunderstand, I'm trying to get the actual function as an object and assign it to a variable, not call it. But it appears I can't. I'm wondering if there's a way to do it that I'm missing or if it's impossible.
well I was answering why you had that error. And for the other part, say if you have a value, and you want to assign a variable for it. The variable of the value should not include the actual value (.Value) because for most part, it will not work
