- and / with one argument should be identity functions.



PLease, let's *not* define (- X) and (/ X) to be something else
than X. It might be the source of obscure errors in (admittedly

Besides that, it may be cute, but it is neither clear nor
consistent, and therefore not "in the spirit of Scheme".

At least, that's my opinion.
