In a previous comment it was mentioned how operator forms can be used to refactor code as part of improving readability but also efficiency. As illustrated by other answers, operator forms can replace occurrences of Function (introduced to deal with nested #&'s) suggesting a refactoring in the code of this answer and in particular a dropping of one of the Table's iterators. The snippet Table[youngest[Select[#age == x &] /* CountsBy[#survived &] /* ({#[True], #[False]} &)]//Normal,{x,Range@cutoff}] is equivalent, perhaps of comparable readability but certainly improved efficiency-wise.
