As to William and Jason's points about plot, yes, that is true (and
makes sense to me - we don't have to have ONLY one way to do it,
though we don't have to be like Perl either).  I'm referring to some
situations where I run into this on worksheets, and I'm sure others do
as well.

Maybe it's just the interact box taking f=x^2 and then having done
f(2)?  Anyway, my only point was that there should be some addition to
the documentation on #8214 to warn people in several places they might
look if they get confused, as it is only natural to do

f(2)

expecting 4, the usual counterexamples of why this is horrible
notwithstanding.  Most people I know don't seem to read the manual
before playing :)

I've commented on the appropriate ticket and changed its title,
thanks, Burcin, for finding that.
