Given the following code:
use std::iter::Iterator;
trait Sequence {
    type SeqType: Iterator<Item = u32>;
    fn seq(&self) -> Option<Self::SeqType>;
}
struct Doubler<'a>(Option<&'a [u32]>);
impl<'a> Sequence for Doubler<'a> {
    type SeqType = Box<dyn Iterator<Item = u32>>;
    // NOT WORKING
    fn seq(&self) -> Option<Self::SeqType> {
        self.0
            .map(|v| Box::new(v.to_vec().into_iter().map(|x| x * 2)))
    }
}
fn print_seq<S: Sequence>(seq: S) {
    let v: Option<Vec<u32>> = seq.seq().map(|i| i.collect());
    println!("{:?}", v);
}
fn main() {
    let v = vec![1, 2, 3, 4];
    print_seq(Doubler(Some(&v)));
}
The compiler will complain with:
error[E0308]: mismatched types
  --> src/main.rs:16:9

   |                        --------------------- expected `std::option::Option<std::boxed::Box<(dyn std::iter::Iterator<Item = u32> + 'static)>>` because of return type

   = note: expected enum `std::option::Option<std::boxed::Box<(dyn std::iter::Iterator<Item = u32> + 'static)>>`
              found enum `std::option::Option<std::boxed::Box<std::iter::Map<std::vec::IntoIter<u32>, [closure@src/main.rs:17:58: 17:67]>>>`
But it works by replacing seq:
fn seq(&self) -> Option<Self::SeqType> {
    fn convert(s: &[u32]) -> Box<dyn Iterator<Item = u32>> {
        Box::new(s.to_vec().into_iter().map(|x| x * 2))
    }
    self.0.map(convert)
}
The code can be tested here.
The only difference is that a closure is used in the failing example, while the other uses a (named?) function, but the logic is the same. It seems like a lifetime problem but haven't been able to figure it out. Also, Option::map is supposed to eagerly consume the value, then the closure should be immediately used.
Why does the closure example fail?
