… is written by someone confused by the documentation for `filter-map`. I went and read the documentation, and *I* was confused for about 30 seconds. I eventually proposed rewriting the existing Returns (filter (lambda (x) x) (map proc lst ...)), but without building the intermediate list. to Returns (filter not-false? (map proc lst ...)), but without building the intermediate list, where not-false? can be defined as (lambda (x) x). This text is kludgier, but I think that the use of (lambda (x) x) as “not-false?” is idiomatic and confusing. And yes, I realize that this suggestion probably applies to many places in the docs. Maybe I should just propose adding `not-false?` as a library function, defined as (lambda (x) x)….
