The thing is, if you want to code with a scheme style, you'll use
named lets very often, so it ought to have a rather short name. Why
the issue with let@, for my curiosity's sake? (for me, @ looks a lot
like a spiral or something like an ongoing loop)

Ever since I understood recursion, I've always found this way more
readable than anything else, to what would you usually rewrite a named
let?
Curiously,
