I think this should be due to this:
| b72f88518b Make dlet work like let, not let*
| Mattias Engdegård <mattiase@acm.org> Sun Aug 1 17:05:48 2021 +0200

| Change `dlet` so that it has binding semantics like `let` because that
| is what a user would expect and it allows a corresponding `dlet*` to
| be added later should the need arise. Fortunately the change has no
| effect where it is currently used.
There was a discussion about that before the change, should not be hard
to find if you are interested in the reasons.
AFAIR there were was not much interest in adding `dlet*'.
Michael.
