Now I understand 13!:19, and it is fine as coded.
Raul's problem was that 13!:19 y requires that y be convertible to a
string, so
13!:19 ] 1
was failing.

That seems like a valid use case. More generally, it seems like it
would be useful to poke around in _any_ stack frame, without
destroying the ones beneath (or on top of, depending on which way
your stacks grow) it. But that leads to forking stacks and
continuations.
