Yes, you are right! I'm not trying to achieve anything. I just want to get
a better understanding of how Racket works. I generally want to know how
things work at the lowest possible level, just as learning assembly helps
me understand C. And sometimes I have trouble learning things under a

Out of curiosity, what is it that you're trying to achieve here? You're
not going to program in the fully-expanded language, you're going to
program in something higher level. Is this purely a "learning assembly
code is good because it gives you a better understanding of machine
architecture" thi

Thank you for your comprehensive answer! It helps a lot. I also read more
about Racket after I posted the question and now I think that the few
special forms (as stated in "fully expanded program") are the core. All
