that doesn't seem right, thunks can and do return value:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thunk

   Thunks are primarily used to delay a calculation until its result is
   needed, or to insert operations at the beginning or end of the other
   subroutine. They have many other applications in compiler code
   generation and modular programming.

   The term originated as a humorous, incorrect, past participle of
   "think". That is, a "thunk value" becomes available after its
   calculation routine is thought through, or executed.[1]
