The only thing I captured from re-reading all that was that something like
`(let' behaves like a function (special form). The variable setting sets the
value but do not define any output.
But I also found that by default, a function in lisp returns the value of the
last expression evaluated as the return value. Hence, the last expression in
the body of the `let' clause is the entity that is returned by `let'.
