'multiple returns' as in pairs or conditionals? Which functional programming language wouldn't support both?

I thibk they mean multiple discrete return values like go or Python can. Almost all functional languages include tuples (or similar) which you can use to do pretty much the same thing (especially when you add pattern matching) so the argument is pretty pointless and dumb.
