    Sorry, you're right, `__exit__()`'s return value is not going to be 
consumed anywhere. What I meant is that `unpersist()` would return the base RDD 
or DataFrame object.
    
    But I'm not seeing the issue with the example you posted. Reformatting for 
clarity:
    
    ```python
    magic = rdd.persist()
    
    with magic as awesome:
        awesome.count()
    
    magic.map(lambda x: x + 1)
    ```
    
    Are you saying `magic.map()` will error? Why would it?
    
    `magic` would be an instance of `PersistedRDD`, which in turn is a subclass 
of `RDD`, which has `map()` and all of the usual methods defined, plus the 
magic methods we need for the context manager.
