Yes. That’s one of the two sources of confusion, the other is the plain old
English `this’ used in the unquoted list and surrounding discussion.
Having `this-here’ emphasizes the first atom of the list being discussed as
distinct from `this' in an oop sense or ordinary `this' in a sentence. It bends
over backwards more for a non-programmer.
Anyway, your call.
