Holdouts who never adopted the new-fangled internal `define` still find `begin`'s semantics to be quite simple and intuitive. :)

I suspect that people like internal `define` because it looks simpler than `let`.

However, if simplicity is one's motivation for teaching internal `define` rather than `let`, then maybe it is important *not* to teach internal `define` in sufficient detail, or suddenly `let` looks like the simpler of the two. :)
