As a rule of thumb, it would seem that you almost never want normal
grinding format if the car of a form is non-atomic; in 9 out of 9.7 cases
you usually want miser mode if it won't all fit on one line. (COND, LET,
((LAMBDA ...) ...), DO are all cases in point.) SO maybe GRIND should be changed foor this
as well as fixing it specifically for LET.
