I don't think I agree on the second count. (As to the first count, I
see this rarely in Scheme code, and never in my own.) Could you give
an example that has realistically long `if' arms? I can see where
you'd have a hard time if it's, say 50+ lines long, but again, I see
this very rarely in Scheme code, and never in my own.
