Because you don't need to:

>> fnc: '*
== *
>> do compose [help (fnc)]
USAGE:
    value1 * value2

DESCRIPTION:
     Returns the first value multiplied by the second.
     * is an op value.

ARGUMENTS:
     value1 -- (Type: number pair char money time tuple)
     value2 -- (Type: number pair char money time tuple)

I guess your problem is just that you're getting the word directly
from FIRST SYSTEM/WORDS, and that's unbound.

>> fnc: first find first system/words '*
== *
>> do compose [help (fnc)]
Found these words:
   *               op!       Returns the first value multiplied by the second.
   **              op!       Returns the first number raised to the second 
numb...
   copy*           action!   Returns a copy of a value.

>> do compose [help (in system/words fnc)]
USAGE:
    value1 * value2

DESCRIPTION:
     Returns the first value multiplied by the second.
     * is an op value.
