The thing is that even in the "Language Reference" is not correct. In "https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#sorted" it is stated "key specifies a function of one argument that is used to extract a comparison key..."

I think that it is better to use the term callable object. In the case of the HOW-TO, maybe it would be good to clarify that a function is an example of a callable object or include a reference or something like that.
