Sam,

Your lazy-let reminds me of the trouble Pythonistas have with the local/global
variable dichotomy and the `global` statement.  That made it into the Python
programming FAQ.  IIRC, setting a variable first defines it in the local
environment; only reading one sees the global environment.
https://docs.python.org/3/faq/programming.html#what-are-the-rules-for-local-and-global-variables-in-python

I believe the Python lesson clearly is to *not* re-invent that trouble in Lisp.

Regards,
	Jörg
