+There will be an extra frame because of the `let' statements. 
+
+The lambdas are evaluated only when called. So, if we put all the definitions on the top
+before the statements which actually use them, then we already have 'sumultaneous scope'
+implemented. Infact that is the assumption we had while implementing 4.16. The definitions
+can contain references to other variables not defined yet, because they will be looked up
+only when we call it with a value.
