I guess I sort of see where it's coming from - the context is that hundreds of devs have to write code that has to preemptively cooperate with other code. So I think the lenient evaluation might be key for this. Suppose you wander into a new environment, it contains some object x, and it has some capability f(x). Suppose your avatar or whatever has some code that already integrates with this f(x). You could just call f(x) in advance, and once you enter that environment, it lazily executes f(x). Or maybe I'm way off base here.
