In emacs -Q, please evaluate the following form with C-x C-e:
(let (deactivate-mark)
(switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create "t"))
(insert "hello")
(set-mark-command nil)
(move-beginning-of-line nil))
This does what you say. However, the mark is deactivated after the form
is executed, which is the opposite of what I expect from this snippet.

I noticed that the mark stays activate (as expected), when I add a
"redisplay" after switch-to-buffer:
(let (deactivate-mark)
(switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create "t"))
(redisplay)
(insert "hello")
(set-mark-command nil)
(move-beginning-of-line nil))
After I evaluate this, the first form also consistently retains the
active mark when I evaluate it. It is expected that the mark stays
active, but it is unexpected that it does so after I evaluate the second
form, yet is deactivated if I only evaluate the first form.
Please also note that the documentation of deactivate-mark states
"around the code that does the modification". If other preconditions are
necessary to consistently retain the active mark, could you please
document them? Thank you.
