After we switch to using 'invoke' everywhere, or more precisely, after
we arrange to never return #false from any phase or snippet, then there
should be one more step before removing the vestigial #true returns: we
should change the code that calls phases or snippets to ignore the
value(s) returned by those procedures. When that is done, then the #t's
will truly be vestigial. Does that make sense?
