Yes, but still your thoughtful explanations may be useful to others
who got catched by the same issues. Personally, I did understood
quite well how Python worked, but I didn't realized until this thread
that Scheme actually works the same, since the recursive loop hides
the effect. I also thank you for correcting my sloppy and/or 
incorrect usage of the terminology. Nice discussion, anyway! :)
