Just to prove that point, a couple of weeks ago I fixed a bug in a
script that looked like this:
(define (some-function ...)
(begin
(set! undeclared-var some-value)
(... more code ...)
))
Fixing this problem was easy and made the code shorter:
(define (some-function ...)
(let ((declared-var some-value))
(... more code ...)
))
