Just because pause behave similarily to  functions with respect to
calling context


And you think the fact that it behaves equal to (not similar to) 
functions is self-evident?


Of course, I have read help *pause*:

Switch to the pause mode; inserted in the code of a function, pause 
interrupts the execution of the function: one receives a prompt symbol 
which indicates the level of the pause (e.g. -1-). The user is then 
in a new workspace in which all the lower-level variables (and in 
particular all the variable of the function) are available.


I have therefore always thought that the given prompt symbol -1- was 
the level of the function (see the link below), and that I still was 
at that level!

And, as I have earlier worked with Matlab, I therefore believed that 
*pause* worked like its *keyboard*:

http://www.mathworks.se/help/matlab/ref/keyboard.html

keyboard , when placed in a program .m file, stops execution of the 
file and gives control to the keyboard. The special status is 
indicated by a K appearing before the prompt. You can examine or 
change variables; all MATLAB® commands are valid. This keyboard mode 
is useful for debugging your functions.
