Forgot to send this earlier, question still stands:

Based on my reading of the docs, the two expressions

(datum->syntax
  #f
  (cons a b))

(datum->syntax
  #f
  (cons (datum->syntax #f a)
        (datum->syntax #f b)))

…compute equivalent values.  They're not "equal?", but I conjecture
that they're interchangeable.

Technically they are distinguishable. But practically they are interchangeable.

Search for "syntax pair" in the docs for a hint about the difference. The two expressions above are as equivalent as the results of reading (a b c) and (a . (b c)).

I'm asking this because I want to wrap the 'require's inserted by
run-teaching-program.rkt with stepper hints (Eli, don't read this!),
and I can't do that until they're syntax objects.

Sounds like it should be fine.
