Whatever you call it, 'incognito? does not accurately reflect the way
REBOL interprets 'alias.

The parentheses in my example above have nothing to do with it. They
are actually superfluous in order to prove the point but were merely
used for convenience of human readers.

Another way to show the inaccuracy of 'incognito? would be:

>> a: context [ x: 1 ]
>> b: context [ x: 1 ]
>> xa: in a 'x
== x
>> xb: in b 'x
== x
>> xa
== x
>> xb
== x
>> incognito? xa xb
== true

Many other variations are possible.
