re: I claim that the apparent copying "isn't QUOTE's fault", and that
it happens regardless of the semantics of quote.
Interesting "gedanken" experiment. In upshot, however, it seems that
you are _supporting_ the semantics of "QUOTE may copy", right? Because,
as you say, there are situations wherein one can't avoid it regardless
of how one implements quote
