      1. been thinking a lot about the Common Lisp condition system. the idea is that you decouple the decision of "what" to do from "how" to do it, but in this snippet from c2 high-level-code bakes in the assumption that return-zero exists somewhere down the stack, which is a coupling?

      ie if a library exposing return-zero stopped exposing it for whatever reason that's a breaking change as far as high-level-code is concerned, unless I'm missing something. the fact that the break could be anywhere down the stack makes it a kind of action at a distance, no?

    I guess my question is: is this even a good idea and if it is what an I missing?
