simon, thanks for the explanation, it's now as clear as i might expect.

now i'm concerned with what you say:  that to understand something
visible to the user one needs to "learn far more about R internals than
one apparently knows".  your response suggests that to use r without
confusion one needs to know the internals, and this would be a really
bad thing to say..  i have long been concerned with that r unnecessarily
exposes users to its internals, and here's one more example of how the
interface fails to hide the guts.  (and peter did not give me a full
answer, but a vague hint.)
