But it would not be schizophrenic to write a function that returned a

In my use case there'd probably be only one name for the given object so
I believe you've given me my next exercise!
Write yourself a "find_name_from_locals(local_map, value)" function
that reports. That will (a) get you a partial answer and (b) cement in
your mind what is possible and why. Easy and useful!
I'll get working on that!
