I would write #(shape-slur offsets) here: there is no need for an
immediate Scheme expression here (the point of $ over # is that the
syntactical function of the $ expression is determined by its expression
type, but here the syntactical function needed is "Scheme" anyway).

$some-expression is equivalent to \name if you had written
name = #some-expression
some times earlier where an assignment is allowed. Actually, whenever
name is a valid LilyPond identifier name as well as a valid Scheme
identifier name, $name and \name are perfectly equivalent.
