An (interactive) clause is not executed. It is metadata which is
consulted before the function starts. You cannot apply normal
executable form reasoning to it.
From the point of view of the interactive call mechanism, there are
three possibilities:
* There is no interactive clause, in which case the function is not
callable interactively
* The first argument of the interactive clause is a string literal, in
which case it is interpreted according to the string interactive spec
rules.
* The first argument is not a string, in which case it is evaluated
and the result passed to the command.
A (cond) form is not a string.
