You are altering the root binding, rather than the current (possibly
dynamic) binding of the variable. The two may be distinct, since the
current bindings may be thread local, such as by `clojure.core/binding`
(see https://clojure.org/reference/vars).

Note that you can `alter-var-root` of non-dynamic vars too, though you
should be careful with that (and usually avoid it altogether).
