Indeed.  

At first, I thought "If ':results value' is always the same as the
default, why have ':results value' at all?" and thought it'd be an
argument for having different defaults for different languages but
I see how I was wrong: expectations for defaults should be stable,
while the notion of "value" and "output" can vary from one language
to the other.

Note that I've fixed this in master, not in maint.  I may release
9.3.8 just for the sake of testing some fixes there, but 9.4 will
follow closely anyway.

Thanks for your patient input in this thread!
