The reason is that you are using 'load. When you load a function, you get a
block containing the function. The assignment of the word to the function
is not executed:
Given that the file %hi.r contains:
f: func [] [ print "hi" ]
Then loading the file results in:
>> type? load %hi.r
== block!
>> load %hi.r
== [f: func [] [print "hi"]]
Using 'do does have perform the assignment of f to the function:
>> do load %hi.r
>> f
hi
>>
