Ha, that was it!  That does remind me though -  just how long the result

is grab right after any command that populates it.

Right. There's no set amount of time or number of calls that change the result, it just changes whenever another command or function sets it. That can be in the next line or twenty lines down the script, though since a lot of things reset the result, it's usually sooner than later. In general, it happens when it's the most inconvenient.
