The help string should not mention what the variable is allowed to contain,
the specification should be in one place only.

BTW, I have the following question:

If fancy-startup-text is a list of lists, each of them containing a 
separate line of text, why does it contain just one list?  I mean, it 
works as is, I just find the value conceptually inconsistent with the model.

Thanks, fixed.

I have no idea.  Maybe someone wanted the data structure to be easily
extensible?  Maybe if you look at this code's history, you will find
the answer?

Closing.
