My statement poorly worded; I meant why they behave differently with 
respect to variable bindings.  And I think you answered that: findall 
was discovered to have problems when nested, and the later bagof and 
setof predicates dealt with bindings differently to fix that.

My naive expectation was that setof would operate like findall except 
that it would remove duplicates from the response set.
