Agree they're different (one is compile-time, other runtime, and much more
differences). But both (potentailly) receive a list of arguments. With
`print' (or any other function) I don't need parenthesis if I don't want to
put them (and I almost always don't want them). Why with `my' I do need
them? Why don't these behave the same?
