If consistency is the goal, let etc. should be extended to support:
(let ([<name>] (<param>) ...)) <body>); etc. i.e. let* letrec letrec*
where [<name>] if present is first newly bound within the scope of <body>;
and the previous named form denoted as being anticipated to be depreciated
at some point in time in the future.
Personally I see no value in introducing any newly named forms.
