Unfortunately I don't think that's right. For functions generally, the
doc states...

"The value of the fallbackValue attribute is used as a default value,
if the SE implementation does not support the function. If the
implementation supports the function, then the result value is
determined by executing the function."

So "fallback" does not equal "default" value. Andrea pointed this
clause out when we were adding the "env" function a little while ago.

Cool :)

Yikes... This must be a definition of "enjoy" that I wasn't previously
aware of...
