Hello,
on the bikeshedding front: I find #true and #false confusing, since
everything I see on the Scheme language seems to use #t and #f. My first
impression was that #true and #false were guilisms...

...but since this does not seem to be the case, I can live with either.

$ guile
scheme@(guile-user)> (eq? #t #true)
$1 = #t
So this would be another argument to stay with #t.
