Hi Romano,
<<Romano>>
(...)
Not only, look at these 2 examples:
>> a: func[][make error! "p"]
>> b: func[][return make error! "p"]
>> error? a
** User Error: p
** Near: make error! "p"
>> error? b
== true
>> a: func[][first [p:]]
>> b: func[][return first [p:]]
>> a
== p:
>> b
== p
(...)

The first sample:
My POV is, that the first sample's function A should behave exactly like the
first sample's function B. (it is contained in my REP). If you see it like
me, send a request to feedback, please. If you don't, can you tell me your
preference?
The second sample:
Although I am not against a possibility to convert Rebol word types while
preserving their binding, I think, that this is a bug (discovered by you).
Could you please report it to feedback with a request to correct the
behaviour of the function A to yield the identical result as the function B
(and with an optional request to supply a binding preserving conversion) ?
Ciao
