Well, I'd say that an OBJECT! is a wrapper around a CONTEXT! (which is not
exposed at the language level). So the relationship between OBJECT! and
CONTEXT! is rather tight; you can view a OBJECT just as a "named context" if
you want.
But I think the reason for calling that function 'CONTEXT is different. What
is the simplest way to make a context?
